All this talk of blood has me thinking about my life 35 years ago... I wanted to be a physician, or perhaps a psychiatrist. But I had to make it through Autopsy 101 and I knew I wouldn't be able to handle... the blood! LOL.

As we age it takes on the angle of importance as we need it to survive. I use blood in my novels to spur both in my readers. I want them to feel the fright of childhood and the need and importance of adulthood. <br />Thanks for your comment S.W.<br />GLGale Laurehttp://www.galelaure.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001825743960552008.post-19164270308733875012009-11-20T11:36:44.380-05:002009-11-20T11:36:44.380-05:00Very intriguing post.

I don't think like they do, so it's been hard for me to make motives seem realistic or to develop the villian deeply enough to make him believeable.<br /><br />Keep up the great work!<br /><br />CherylCherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470069911115912344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001825743960552008.post-66862384615309960022009-11-20T08:50:40.543-05:002009-11-20T08:50:40.543-05:00Good morning, bloggers and readers.
