I do not write about people raping kids. I do not write about kids being abused. What I wrote is a story about a man trying to figure out how he got to where he is in his mind.
There is no graphic sex with any child in the story. The whole thing takes place while a guy is driving by himself thinking about why he is like he is. Nobody is in the car with him, only memories.
I write because I want to. I write because I want to get better at it. I write because I have stories I want to share. I try to get my characters to explain why they are doing what they are doing. I think that is important to the story. When this site tells me that a man can’t remember in his own head things from his unmolested past then I think the under-age policy has been too strictly enforced.
If I have to consider the guidelines of a censor as I plot a story, and tell it then I am learning how to conform not how to write. The story should be able to come first. I don’t see how I can post this story here; I don’t think I can explain how the man became who and what he is without some background. That background comes from his childhood and here, on this site, childhood is forbidden.
There seems to be a posse of guys who always come rushing in to tell the writer how wrong he is and to not challenge the rules. I don’t know if the site pays them or not. I don’t care one way or the other but if they take the side of the site without reading the story and seeing for themselves if there is child porn, then I think they are wrong to open their mouths to me.
Like I said I am no great writer but anybody who trains themselves to write with a self imposed censor in their head is not the sort of writer that I wanted to become anyway.
I would not write something that would bring heat on this site. I like it too much and over the years I have come to feel like I know a lot of the people here. I am not trying to tear anyone’s playhouse down. But if the underage sex thing applies to this story then they are over-reacting in a big way. I had an editor go over this before posting and he never saw a problem with underage sex. I was totally blindsided by this whole uproar. I never saw it coming because the content of the story does not merit it.
