Like I need another project but I just had a quirky, yet, a potencially gripping means of a story. I actually started out writing - when I took it seriously - Non-Fiction for the most part.

Here's the catch: I'd have to interview, which is no big thing, but to interviw what makes you tick is a whole diff wavelength. Not catching on yet? Here, I'll be more blunt. What if I were to write "something" about one inner demon? We all have one, if not more, but seldom even mention them. And for good reason too. What if I were to interview people who were willingly to share?

My question is this. Would this project actually be interesting enough for anyone to read?

Opinions! :D

EDIT: Forgot to mention. I will not interview YWS members, so no worries. Most parents I think would slice and dice. I just want to see if this is a good or poor idea. That's all.
The sadness drains through me rather than skating over my skin. It travels through every cell to reach the ground. I filter it yet strangely enough, I keep what was pure and it is the dirt that leaves.

What exactly do you mean? A story about my feelings? My evil intentions? Inner Perversion? Secrets?

Yes Sam. People desperately want someone to stand up and admit to having a problem similar. Many, many people might read that. You would just have to interview skillfully. But being intrusive is often a good way to attract readers. I say yes.



Russets and tangerine shades of old gold flushing the very outside edge of the senses ... deep shining ochres, burnt umber and parchments of baked earth—reflecting on itself and through itself, filtering the light.
