        Writing based on my obsessions would be liberating for me but very painful for others and possibly more for the people I love. I silenced my obsession for many years. I need to start and find out how

        Both? E.g., Anne Perry, played by Kate Winslet as NZ teen helping friend kill her mother (great film "Heavenly Creatures"). 5 yrs jailed, then Anne slipped to UK, successful murder mystery career - Write what you know; really? Write about what obsesses youhttps://nyti.ms/2pBnIpb

        That's the problem with the New York Slimes. They don't write what they know. They have too many leftists writing what obsesses them...a disinformation campaign to bring down the Republic, because they want a global socialist world order.
