Everyone I need a professional and serious moment when I ask this question. So Caleb is an old character of mine who I wrote for two years, I have more than 15,000 words with him, which is more than any other character by leaps and bounds. He was my baby, but he's also a bipolar, drug addict who if this were to happen would have killed the woman he was in love with in a brutal way after he raped her and she was pregnant with his child. Two years is time for a lot of plotting, anyway, He was my baby, but sadly who I wrote him with and I no longer communicate. She’s fantastic but there were things, anyway. Now a days I’m so depressed he keeps coming into my mind, and now I’m playing with the idea of writing him again, by myself or others, I’m not sure, but yes maybe. I just feel like maybe if I started writing about a character moving past some major things in their life maybe life will follow suit and I’ll learn too. The thing is Caleb is not a light and happy character, and has been known to put me in a dark place though, so now I’m forced with the question of should I and can I do it.
I do honestly want feedback on this. Caleb can be an over all amazing muse source, and release but should I put myself in those shoes again. Should I write by myself or bring someone new in? It would have to be someone new that didn’t know his back story. Please respond, I want honest advice. Thanks everyone, Jinx. [/center][/blockquote]

hmm, so this is a hard question to answer, but I will give you my honest opinion. Writing is a release, i know this to be true, at least for myself, so correct me of i'm wrong, but if it is a release you should want to write about your current moods. Talon isn't a very.. happy character, or at least she wasn't and at the time, my parents had been getting on my nerves for a very long time and life in general sucked for me, i had so much muse for her because i was always in a bad mood, ask everyone around the site, i wasn't very sociable and i didn't feel very good most of the time. But that was what gave me muse. Personally, i say go for another amazing and epic character, because if the char you want to write with puts you in a dark place that's not really a release, that's like hurting yourself on purpose and I just don't want to see you go through that because I love you. I know that's not a very good reason, but I wouldn't want to put myself in a bad mood on purpose and it sounds like that is what you're wanting to do, I don't want that for you, so I say, make a new char<3
I hope my answer makes sense, but I gave you it (:
