Try changing the names--sometimes it's best to write behind a wall of protection--changing names is one way, location is another, changing the color of hair, height, and a few characteristics can help. Create "characters" that are similar to the real life people, and free yourself to write your truths. Best of luck! Linda Joy Hi Smita,

I think about the future repercussions, and get frozen. I am thinking if I change all the names, and most of the names where we lived, would that help me? Knowing that in order to give some wake-up calls to the women (especially women in India in the same predicament as mine), I should write about my tragic life..and the kids' lives, irrespective of the consequences. I am fighting. Thank you, smita Hi Linda! I think about the future repercussions, and get frozen. I am thinking if I change all the names, and most of the names where we lived, would that help me?
