Standard Six Book Blog
I was doing research on the site of the main character of my book last night.. I decided on the name for my main character.. Seth..
In researching Seth’s blog I was moved, touched, inspired, and over-awed by the sadness, the beauty, the grief, the depths of depravity, the heights of recovery – rendered almost speechless by the time I had finished reading the bits that he had shared of himself, in more ways than one.. J the relationship of the child and the predator, is a complex yet, innocent one.. I know.. contradictory hey.. but I got very present to the light and dark of the characters, both of the Captor and the Captee.. what was happening for both and that there is almost an inexplicable symbiosis, energetically post physical experience. I can only intellectualise it at the moment, even though I have first hand experience of a similar experience with a member of my family (not immediate family).. so I was there in my mind… I could feel the confusion, the moral divide, the surrealness of it all and the insanity of it all.. no wonder I have trust issues I realised.. I see my patterns emerging out of someone else’s pattern.. I need to do some inner work, this is plain to see..

I have realised too what my story is about.. it is about the children who suffered during the years of apartheid.. it is not about apartheid that I write, it is the children who were victims during a time where attitudes were fixed, controlled and closed to anything outside of what existed, irrespective of colour, creed, gender.. we were all victims one way or another at some point.. this story is about the way through… what happened now.. and where we are at.. I need to go to South Africa.. check out my fearless flyer blog.. http://fearlessflyer.posterous.com to see why I haven’t gone home and embraced my culture..
