#WordWeavers 12Aug—What about writing is challenging for you?
Separating myself from the emotions of my characters.
I don't find the act of writing particularly challenging. Yes, some days are harder than others, but I enjoy the mechanical complexities of this craft.
But I'm an empath. I deeply feel the emotions of my characters—sometimes to my own detriment (especially with the sad/distressed emotions).
It's something I recognize, and understand I need to improve without impacting my style.
