Holiday Aftermath

There is always a feeling of letdown after the holidays.  For me this year, I choose to look at it as a renewal....a renewal of friendships, renewal of life and a renewal of purpose and forgiveness. 

Forgiveness is something that I am exploring with a female character.  She is quite frankly....really struggling with it. Through her, I am examining choices. There are lies and deception surrounding her and she wonders....what is the truth of it? Pathological liars are convincing.  What is the expression?  If you tell a lie enough times, you will actually come to believe it! There are no promises of resolution.

It is both exhilarating and exhausting to immerse myself in my characters' lives. I am there in the midst sorting it all out...or not.
