I'm thinking my next Forum project might be a kind of semi-post-apocaliptic sci fi. But the thing is, I want to make it a first-person narrative, which would mean including a tiny bit more.... emotional stuff. Also, the main characters would be humans in the mid-to-upper teen years. The dilemma I'm getting at here is, do I want to be totally, brutally honest about emotions and character flaws at the risk of sounding, I dunno, stupid? Are the forums ready for something like this? Or should I stick to what I know, hard-core sci-fi focusing on action and plot? Can I really confidently talk about the complexities involved with, you know.... emotional stuff? Or would I just sound like a loser? This is a tough one for me.
