Hi, Emma,

That’s a tough one. It would depend on what target and age group you’re writing for, and what the conflict might be. My advice would be to write what you write, and worry about what other people think of it when (and if) the time comes. After all, when you write your way, you’re really being true to yourself, and that’s a good thing. And if you’re good with words and nuance, there are ways of presenting absolutely everything.

My advice? Stop worrying.                                                                     —–Gordon Korman—–
