I am trying to write sword fights and such, so it is a challenge.Dawn Embershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00214560861614476799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3926512147242886610.post-36056609016361003912012-04-25T03:49:41.019-07:002012-04-25T03:49:41.019-07:00I, myself, am a total violence avoider.

My characters on the other hand...<br /><br />I write fantasy and horror, so there's often violence. The way I tackle it (especially with the killers that enjoy killing) is slowly. Savour every moment. <br /><br />People often think it has to be really, really fast moving - WAP! BAM ! POW! But your reader doesn't want to get lost in a flurry of arms and legs. Slow things down and you'll be surprised how violent it still is. And you can always edit out some of the filler later on.Spanjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13893837904669368614noreply@blogger.com
