Story of my life
There's an old axiom about writing only what you know. To write about ones experience is our greatest accomplishment, one that I hope to achieve with my next idea for a story. Sorry all you who like Pelen's story. I visited my mom earlier today and she made the suggestion I should write about my experiences as a childhood victim of
bullying. This is a subject I have a hard time even thinking about much less putting into print or on paper. You see my experiences with bullying was never what you see in movies or in print. I was never beat up for lunch money, I rarely got into fights, and never came home with a black eye. I suffered through my school years being called various names that in retrospect seem silly. I remember faking headaches because I didn't have the self respect to even go to school. it's hard to explain and I hope I do a good job putting a character into a role I once held myself. While I write this story I'll put thoughts and incites into my blog so you get the idea of where these things come from.
