The Bible is pretty full of violence, cursing, sexual infidelity, and more, and yet it is God's Word and extremely redemptive in nature. Does that carry over to fiction writing? It's a question we have to all wrestle with as writers and find where we arrive.
I love this. Most of my writing is dark in nature, but often I'm exploring how far down we can go before there's no redemption.
Of course, there's always redemption. No one's past hope. That's probably the overarching theme of my writing, if I had to pin one down.
Peirs, by the way, wrote a blurb for the book's back cover.
Oh, that's neat!
