So this morning I finished a scene I'd been avoiding, in which A&E find a mother and child who die/have died (respectively) of measles. I knew the impact I wanted to make, and the points I needed to get across with this scene, but as a mother of a young son it was hard. Even though it was fictional and not based on any personal experience, finishing the scene choked me up a little.
Not exactly beginning the day on a high note. But Robert Frost said "No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader," so hopefully that means I've written something with emotional impact.
On a lighter note, see the post below for a contest! I'm off to get ready for work.
