Pushing The Boundaries

I like it when authors push the boundaries in books. What do I mean when I say that? Well, when an author writes a very dark and sadistic story full of torture and gore (similar to Saw style movies), I find that very fascinating. Not necessarily because I'm into torture and gore, but because I'm intrigued that they can weave a story around those elements.

That also got me thinking about cussing in writing again. Looking back on Crush, I didn't intend to cuss at all. However, the more I wrote the character Dell, the more I felt it was necessary to develop his character. I think the same can be applied to Bow. Bow (in version 1.0) was kind of evil and twisted, but I want to push the boundaries and make him/her even MORE sadistic and psychotic. I'm going to try to do that by digging into Bow's thoughts. Why is Bow killing people? Is there a reason? Why does Bow kill people a certain way?

Truth be told, Bow is starting to actually scare me with how evil and psychotic he/she is. Somebody hold me!!!
