After reading your post I decided you had the right idea, so I'm keeping my computer turned off during the day, and only using it while the kids are asleep. It's tough, but I feel better, like it's the "right" way. I know you understand my garbled mess. :)<BR/><BR/>And I understand your clutter completely! Here's my theory: My character's start off as "mine", but once I give them a certain set of values, thoughts, and attitudes, they take them and mold them into themselves. Once I give them free will, so to speak, I'm just a tool to get them where they're going. Make sense?Word Ninjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442734432675613510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1121338392462486974.post-4254513790720461482009-03-16T23:12:00.000-04:002009-03-16T23:12:00.000-04:00Oh, and I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weiner...caus...Oh, and I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weiner...cause my bologna has a first name. :)Sweet Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15400595009449115286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1121338392462486974.post-27617690871102880022009-03-16T23:11:00.000-04:002009-03-16T23:11:00.000-04:00I can't believe I have missed this post.

I thought it would be fun to attempt a relationship without a computer screen. <BR/><BR/>Pros and Cons, of course. It is weird how I can find my attention drawn back to the friends I have on blogger. It seems like we open up and safely communicate what is on our minds and in our hearts. <BR/><BR/>Funny about your characters. The bizarre thing that I kept thinking of is: Although your characters are fiction, and you are God-like in creating them...could it be that you have designed their energy which actually becomes alive?(this is deep, so get ready) And they speak to you and help you create them? But, how can this be? When...they aren't real in the first place? <BR/><BR/>My kids are jumping all over me as I am trying to articulate this concept! But, maybe...maybe you will understand this clutter I am attempting!Sweet Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15400595009449115286noreply@blogger.com
