There was no energy this past week to join your post in a timely manner. But I pushed myself today (and will now go crash). I'll read many of these later.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to add that I STILL believe mightily in the power of FICTION to get through the intractable wall around the human heart, and I'm doing that.

YES Alicia. Fiction is a wonderful escape. At one point I found I couldn't read novels any more, and I felt bereft... luckily I discovered audio books and I love them. Actually I could probably read novels again now as I've had some improvement lately, but I've got hooked on audio books. I'll take a look at your link now. :)
DeleteAlicia - sorry for not tending to this sooner. I set the 5pm deadline on May 12th as I was going to be mostly out of internet range for a few days. I'm just getting back to this now and have added your post to the list. Sorry it is a bit late. xx
DeleteYou have nothing to apologize for! I didn't meet a reasonable deadline - it happens, and it's fine.
DeleteBut I wasn't using fiction as a distraction, I wrote Pride's Children to show a woman living with CFS - and still having the same wants, needs, and loves as a 'normal' woman, except that she has herself to battle as well, not wanting to bestow her illness on one who is younger and healthy.
The education is buried deep in the entertainment; most people will not see that I'm trying to get past their defenses to show how CFS has shaped Kary as well as made her wiser and MORE valuable. That you get by reading.
Wow, what a great effort! Thanks for going to all this trouble Sally, I'm slowly making my way through the list of blog posts.
