Honesty is difficult. The one things I want in this book is for it to be truly honest about how I feel about motherhood and other aspects of my life. This poses some really tough issues, because there are things that I feel about people that I haven't shared with them. How do author's do it? Do you tell the people about it before you let them read it or do you just publish it and hope they don't hate you? How would you feel if you found out in a book that someone was annoyed by something you did and put it in publication? I'm pretty sure I'd be pissed off.
::sigh::
I have a tendency to get really annoyed and bothered by really tiny things. I don't bring them up or address them very often because I know they are petty. I admit in my writing that I know I'm acting like a 2 year old. Does that make it any better?

Yeah, I would talk to those people first. But I'll tell you what, I would write the material first, then talk to them. You're less likely to change what you've written once its in words. I know if it were me and I spoke with the person before I wrote anything down and they made me feel bad about writing it, I might change what I had wanted to say because I felt bad.
