Short answer... for me. *g*

I do love to write. Started a horror novel with time travel setting years ago. Never finished it.

Also wrote a book prompted my my experiences in my past marriage. Never did anything with it. Only let one person read it and it left her in a state of shock. "Man!" that's all she said. One word. It's still tucked away, not thrown away.

I did one modeling stint years ago. No.. two. Hated everything about that whole scene. Often thought about writing a Mr Bean type mockery of the whole scenario. But didn't bother. *lol*

But no screenplay.

hi Linda now you odnt have to answer this
 
if you dont want to
but i just got out of an affair which really screwed me up and ive been thinking of writing a book about it based on my experiences mainly to help me deal and release the pain. did you find writing about it helped you?
like i say you dont have to answer if you dont want to or you can email me if you prefer.
As for the modelling part well i can see why you were chosen and a send up of that would be a great idea.
all the best
mike

It was a vent, which is a necessary step.. : )
 
Hi Mike:

For me, it was a vent. Psychologically, when faced with the failure of a relationship, we need to go through the stages of healing. The first stage is venting the anger, frustration and hurt.

Only after venting can we begin to heal.
For me, writing allowed me to vent.

Some people can accomplish the same thing by talking to a friend, throwing darts at the person's picture or through some type of physical workout. Only you can figure out what will work for you.

The best bit of advice and support I could offer you is to assure and remind you that "going through" is not and should not be "camping out in." You will get past it. That is the glorious thing about life. It goes on.

Best of luck, and keep your chin up.

Sincerely,
Linda
