We all at one time or another we do need to escape the harshness of reality, so long as as we can seperate fantasy from reality so that we do not become so engrossed in our fantasies that it swallows us up and we can't survive in the real world. I'm no psych major, but in my career I've seen much suffering from people using drugs,alchohol etc. to escape reality that I know from my experiences that any form of addiction can be harmful if your not careful. But on that same note, I also love anime and for me after a long shift, thay is what I use to escape from reality, at least for a while. But hey, it beats drugs and alcohol.

Wow, that's one good explanation/ theory which i agree. BTW what are u working as???

I work as a firefighter/paramedic in the USA and today I just got off a double shift of 48 hours. And although this weekend was pretty quiet, as far as emergencies go. It was still pretty tiring so I'll be going to bed in a little while.

Whoa!! Muz be pretty tiring. make sure u get plenty of rest and may belldandy bless u!!

Many peple are really making fanfiction..they have their website too:) check out this website---->www.fanfiction.net

"Dr." jimmytheshank, have you read the story "Trial By Tenderness"? It just fits the story to the one that you said in this thread...

Oh yeah, I'm up to chapter 40 now. I copy the chapters down and read them on shift when it's slow. I prefer reading it on print vs. staring at a computer screen because I enjoy reading. It's an excellent story, but I can't help but worry a little about the writer. The emotions of the character CEVYN are so detailed as to being such a tortured soul that I can't help but wonder if the writer is perhaps opening up his own soul. Ah, maybe I'm reading too much into it.

Yeah, that CEVN is such like a tortured soul...beated by his own parents, using drugs, has a trauma on the opposite sex, and getting berserk when he is drunk.;_; Poor guy. much poorer when he plucked his eyes using a knife just to save skuld...awwwww....in loved with urd but he cannot coz he is in a trauma.....such pity.....but the author has a morbrid personality...

True, but he is an accomplished writer. I hope he's ok.

i sometimes wonder that the author is REALLY cevn?

well, i really do't know it either but maybe the author portrays himself in the character of cevn...:)

Well let's hope not, because if He is He needs help.

Athough now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure he's just a good writer

A good writer with a wide imagination.
