So ..here is a question for you guys..have you ever been writing through the eyes of a killer and gotten so freaked out that you could write such a convincineg scene that you wondered if you were losing your mind and were in danger of becoming like what you wrote?
Not exactly, but I could soooo go there. I got so into writing the sex scene from a womanizer man's point oif view, I was absolutely giddy.
I also just saw Hannibal Rising. I came out of there realizing that I have to quit telling people I write thriller/horror.
I do not write horror.
At least not that kind (realizing there's more than one way to write horror).
I was freaked out in the sense that you are talking about because I thought, "What if I wrote scenes like that? I don't want to know if that could come out of me."
Now, my friends, I don't normally write cut-em-up-hack-em-up scenes, but I will tell you I could.
These are not the scenes that frighten me.
Did anyone see the film yet? Or read the book?I don't want to say what the senes are in case I give something away - it's the reason Hannibal went in sane to begin with.
It was the most disgusting thing EVER.
Ah...um...what was the question again, Casi??
