Just wanted to say thank you. I am finding this series of character skills and traits so useful in my writing, in terms of both sparking new ideas and fleshing out characters.

It brings me back to childhood when I used to be able to hold it much longer than now! Though, with chemical sensitivities, I hold my breath often when I’m out! This is an excellent trait to consider when writing, Angela. Thanks, as always 🙂

In reply to Joe Plemon. The book is almost always better, isn't it? Sometimes it does spoil things to see the movie.

In reply to ANGELA ACKERMAN. I loved the book so much that I opted not to see the movie. I read about the parts of the book that were left out of the movie and figured it would probably disappoint me.

In reply to Traci Kenworth. And the training they have to do is just unbelievable, but they really need to develop a specific skill set to function well in the water, so it makes scene, but wow, not a career for the faint of heart. Very admirable of him to choose to put himself in such danger for his country.

In reply to Joe Plemon. How funny you bring up Unbroken, Joe--I just watched the movie in the theater. It was quite the story. :)

Strong breath control is a talent I have never considered in my own writing, but certainly one that saved Louis Zamperini’s life (in Laura Hillenbrand’s “Unbroken”) when his rescue plane crashed. The book was non-fiction of course, but Hillenbrand’s comprehension of this skill is one factor in making Zamperini’s story so riveting.

My nephew was a deep sea diver for the navy. He went down into some dangerous places and spaces. Can’t imagine.
