I love it when authors do this. <br /><br />I'm glad you two seem to like it. I have a hard time writing fight scenes without them seeming a little redundant.amberargylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058327741777322247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-41032062686295148612009-09-03T14:46:48.950-06:002009-09-03T14:46:48.950-06:00I think you're right about the key being balan...I think you're right about the key being balance. I don't have anything like this in my book, but I have some battle (or post-battle) scenes that are pretty dark. I tend to lighten such scenes with a little humor. Not that I'm recommending you do that here -- you've got exactly the right tone, I think.)Laura Canonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16574566234310522696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-64599138391449226802009-09-03T13:02:31.803-06:002009-09-03T13:02:31.803-06:00Glamis: This particular book is very violent.

I think I would have to read it and see what I thought. I liked Hunger Games. Kat was violent, but only to protect herself. So it worked for me.amberargylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058327741777322247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-40892285184696393202009-09-03T09:01:52.204-06:002009-09-03T09:01:52.204-06:00Oh, I wanted to say that sometimes the violence be...Oh, I wanted to say that sometimes the violence being caused isn't always being caused by the villain. My hero is often the cause of the violence, and I'm afraid my readers are going to get upset with him, hah. Still, it's a balance, like you say.Michelle D.

There's so much buildup that has to happen!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this! It's a good example of giving enough detail to get us through a tense situation with getting too queasy.Michelle D.
