#PennedPossibilities 836 — SC POV: What is your darkest childhood memory?

(So, why this question? I'll explain.

The childhood stuff matters. Bright, beautiful memories matter as much as the dark ones. Sure, we don’t value the dark ones the way we value the bright, but whether we’re aware of it or not, the dark ones influence our life choices as well.

The same must be true for your character. So, think about your character’s past and sculpt it honestly. Don’t hide the nasty bits. Acknowledge them and understand how they’ve shaped your character’s personality and worldview.)

Hati: Seeing my uncle murder my father. He butchered him. I was only ten years old. It's not a memory I look back on rather often. In fact, I try not to think about it. Over the years, it's become fuzzier. I loved my father, and my mother as well, but I hope to forget about his gruesome death someday. Memories tend to fade for all of us.
