Love this Avril, it is very touching and inspirational. It is a brave person indeed who reveals themselves truthfully and openly. Couple that with revisiting our distant past and delving into our deepest emotions well, brave doesn't really cover it! Keep going, you are a beacon for those of us seeking creative encouragement and stimulation.

It's a road I know well. My novel in progress in purely fictional, but the people, place and content are very close to the bone. I contrast this with flash fiction. I'll write a 500 word piece on something of the day. A fictional take on a glance observed, a scenario, or a snippet of conversation overheard in the now.
