I see it this way, there's violence and there's action..I don't believe violence and bloodshed for the sake of violence. I like action though, you know being chased, bit of wrestling etc. I know what you mean as a writer, I had ideas before I was born again that I let go years ago but at the same time it paralysed my writing because I was trying to work out what I 'should' write or the boundaries I shouldn't go beyond. Fast forward a few years I've found that my imagination naturally doesn't come up with violent ideas, crude language or immoral themes anymore so now I'm learning to be more free in what I'm writing and I find the ideas I come up with have underlying themes that point towards things of faith and an underlying message. A story telling another story.
