O-kay.
I didn't want to comment here first, as most of the things that crossed my mind have already been said. But, hey, Jaxxy, I'm all behind you. We J people need to stick together. Moreover...
I'm letting down my pants here, in a manner of speaking. I do hope nobody will regard THAT as obscene.
I myself was exposed to a variety of abuse, as a child and as an... older child. This led to various consequences and lots of work for psychologists. B)
This said, I can assure you of one thing: Personally, I write that shit to get it out of my system. I need to do so, if I publish it or not, and I was glad to find people who like me to share what I write. I was overwhelmed at the reactions to some of my 'stronger' works by a public audience, especially where I had the (legally safe) chance to get my writing out in lectures. Had there been someone to sue me, I might have told him that he should first sue those who did it, not the author who writes it down, or invents similar happenings, or the like.
To quote a famous author (was it Wilde? Was it Byron? Forgot), "...if I don't write, I go mad."
Well yes, that's what I wanted to add. Thank you all. I love being here.
