I think as I've gotten older my DD gene has gotten a little quieter, much to my dismay and SP just points to my daughter and frowns if I want to do something stupid. But I agree on the daredevil characters! (Hence my fascination with a recent manuscript...) I like them active and rough and tumbly! And if they get hurt, you're right: more conflict! (Oh, we writers are a sadistic bunch.)K.

Maybe that's why we want kids with strong daredevil genes-- they rub off on us. :)Peggy Eddlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241451940725996650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-20682906133579362852011-06-21T08:35:38.486-06:002011-06-21T08:35:38.486-06:00My self preservation gene is a little too strong. ...My self preservation gene is a little too strong. For that reason I like the daredevil in a book too. Oddly enough, I want my kids to have a stronger daredevil gene. Seems crazy, but I know how bad it sucks to have a stronger self preservation one. It's boring.Kristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600848519776378591noreply@blogger.com
