I've started a new thread to save confusion.

David, I would never question the power of your intellect, but as well as being a strength I think it is a weakness. It clearly suppresses / represses your emotional side which is also a valid part of the human response. I wonder whether by over-intellectual(l)ising you will kill your scripts / screenplays, and by applying the same to 'Chris & Nigel' it would lead to the same result.

I agree with the theories you set out for writing a story, but then I find I didn't apply them to my own stories (see N Fourbois on the Story Shelf). In fact I tried to avoid conflict to provide a haven in a troubled world.

When writing what I considered my best writing, I was my inside my characters, I had become my characters and I was living in my mind what I was writing. Whether they are two or three dimensional only others can say. All I can say is that 99% of the feedback has been positive despite my inviting adverse criticism. (Privately I consider some of my stories crap while others I treasure - risk here of Ratner's syndrome.)

Certainly writing has helped me come to terms with myself after years of suppression for professional and social reasons to the point where I could write in another thread that I enjoy my homosexuality despite the fact that I could be rather lonely in later life.

Hugs
Nigel

I dream of boys with big bulges in their trousers,
Never of girls with big bulges in their blouses.

…and look forward to meeting you in Cóito.
