She made them cry...

I think I'm over-sensitive. Actually, I know I am. There's just been a fictional vet programme on the TV which had an injured Westie in it. We're planning on getting a Westie puppy soon so that probably made it worse, but I started crying. Mum told me, "it's just a story". Well yes, thanks for that. It didn't stop me crying.

There is a relevant point to this. I cry when I read some novels too and one thing I've always wanted to do is to make someone cry whilst they're reading my book. I know that sounds a bit sadistic, but I want to write something that will have that effect.

I know there's something in my book that might make someone cry...we'll have to see if my writing is good enough to make it seem real.
