Thank you for your thoughts in this article. I write from my life experiences too and often think what if readers recognise things about my life from this. At a workshop for a story, a friend picked this up and commented about it. I was really stuck for words because the story I was workshopping was based on my life. I’m still struggling with this and telling myself to write the stories first then worry about the responses later. But I do realise the responsibility to others in my life who end up in my fiction.
