I'm sorry, this isn't very nice I'm sure, but *she backed this up by claiming that the Goddess appeared to her in a vision and told her that she wanted us to get married. This probably should have tipped me off to something* made me laugh my ass off, but because it's funny and because I've been there, I've been there. I have the same problems with trying to write subtly of emotion, mainly because I don't actually possess subtly of emotion. (my sister once asked why every love scene I write involves someone throwing a rock at the person they like) Or complex motivations. I usually have to keep a scoresheet and graph the possibilites of what a character might be thinking. I agree - it's hard work. But you're obviously capable of it. Maybe the relationship shit is just making a mental caster wheel wobble at the moment. "From the Gods" sounds really intriguing. Kind of like if the kids from "Village of the Damned" had become teenagers, huh? I also like the metatextural origin (kind of like what I tried to do with "A Boy's Life").
