Yesterday the writing of my WIP, "The Conviction of Hope" left me feeling a bit traumatized. I hope my readers will get the same feeling. (That's the point of writing fiction, drawing readers into the world you create so they feel for the characters.)
My main female protagonist, Elizabeth Bartlett, suffered a substantial amount before being sent to Norfolk Island in 1796. With some creative licence I've added a few more dramas to her life in the first few months on the Cullen farm.
Kindness will win in the end, though.
