Excerpt:  Ever since I can remember, I've been crying. Sometimes it seems like all I ever do. One of my earliest memories is of my father chasing me around the house when we lived in Dumas, Texas. He had a big pair of scissors in his hand, and I can still hear the sounds of the steel slicing open and closed as he shouted “I'll cut it off, dammit; I'll cut that little fucker off.” I had woke him to the news, again, that I had wet the bed. Hell, I was only five, and frightened, and tears streamed down my face. Fortunately, Mom came to the rescue, so I'll never know if he'd of cut that fucker off.

this is so painful--i spent a great deal of time crying myself--this sounds like a story that could be developed into a book...
