This post came at a good time for me. The main character in my novel in progress is surrounded by fears of many kinds. You helped me be in her mind instead of just acting as a reporter of her struggles. Thanks, Kelly

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about fear. It brought back a lot of
school memories, and family dealings. And, it lead me to a deeper
understanding of things I grew up with.

I empathized with your childhood school fears, Kelly. Your memories brought back a rush of my own and also, and to a greater degree, the struggles and fears of my son in his early school years. Empowering our protagonists in the books we write may help readers with their own fears more than we can ever know.
