Don't apologize! If you consider who I'm dating, you'd see that I'm not easily bothered by any type of fiction. I never like it when people think they should tell someone that their writing (especially fiction) is too extreme... It should push buttons and raise emotions. Real life is uncomfortable sometime. If you don't like it, don't read it... But never tell a writer that they should tone it down for the sake of your own comfort.
If you were condoning child abuse or something for real, I'd have a problem. But it's fiction and it shouldn't always be pleasant rainbows and butterflies.
Ooops. No one's said tone it down, sorry if I gave that impression. The stuff I detailed in my kenakeri journal is just making me Super Emo Girl these days.

We're not supposed to edit stuff after it's posted, but I'm going to ask Gary if it's okay to put a warning.

I'm rather sorry it's still freaking people out - I'd toned it down a lot because I couldn't bear making it closer to the real cases I'd read.

I like it the way it is :)
