where fears and lies melt away.
You ever notice how we have certain elements tied to emotions in writing? Characters are always burning with anger, seething in hatred, flooded by emotion, raging like a tempest.

A: Never really given this much thought, but I guess pigs? They can be cute - plus emergency bacon.

Q: You're trapped on an island, but know you'll be rescued in a week. What three books do you bring with you to pass the time?

And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating


“’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door—
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;—
This it is and nothing more.”


Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
“Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I opened wide the door;—
Darkness there and nothing more

“’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—
Only this and nothing more.”

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December;
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

'You were my gift, Hazel,' she said. 'My most precious gift. I was foolish to think I needed anything else.' She kissed Hazel's forehead and held her. Her warmth gave Hazel the courage to continue.
