It can be a rough topic ...
so what if we all wrote the plain truth and experiences exactly as life has happen?
Perhaps there are reason for self-censoring or rewriting how life happen to fit the story to tell? what is wrong with trying to get people to understand something?
Perhaps its about the repercussions of offending in graphic detail?
what if a story told all the horror stories of a third world country?
what if a story told all the skeletons of a family or culture?
what if a story told in great detail the horror of the 80s?
what if someone offended by the story decides to do something about it?
I have to say not all authors have the support or the space to hash out their ideas ... it would be nice .. lol it sounds like one of those writers groups
I love history in terms of how we got from point A to point B ... I love the stories of knowing what it took to get from point A to B
But sometimes making a story too graphic ... the story can get lost
it seems the difference between a novel and its movie ... is where the story gets simplified for the masses to appreciate the beauty of the story than to get bogg down by the complex drama or its details
Sometimes the plain truth detracts and sometimes it helps ... its how we write it using self-censorship
ie: If we wrote about Vietnam War from the USA perspective we make the Vietnamese the bad guys
If we wrote about Vietnam from the Vietnamese POV then the Americans be the bad guys
If we wrote about both like a Romeo n Juliet ... we might convey how bad war is ...
If we gave the story some history that leads to modern day then we give perspective about human evolution through its social, economic, and political issues.
lol, gosh like you can put every day copyrighted stuff into your story ... no mcD ... no coca cola ... no justin bieber ... no real senators ... no presidents lol
unless you can get them to sign off the movie version of your story
I was watching brothers n sisters ... they have the 2008 presidential elections ... republican primaries ... no mccain ... no obama ... yes health care
