Has anyone ever done something crazy as "research" for their story. (Raises hand) Tonight I reached a part of my story where my main character gets waterboarded. If you don't know what that is someone ties the other down, places a towel or other cloth over their head and then dumps water slowly over them for 15 seconds at a time. After looking everything up I could find I realized I just couldn't do it justice without experiencing it myself. So yes, I had my husband waterboard me without being tied down. I lasted 5 seconds and then was so thrilled my husband thought I was crazy. But I'm ecstatic I can now write my story. Crazy. Right?
