I use Margie's ECE too, and it is vastly helpful. But I wanted to have a few different guides that were a step below ECE and the Emotion Thesaurus, for the first draft.

You're welcome, Miffie. I hadn't heard of hard and soft emotions either, and it took some digging into. In the end, I didn't even find any resources devoted to only that topic...it was always an add-on to something else. So I asked a psychologist friend to explain it to me. 🙂

Aren't writing retreats just the best?! I always come home with new knowledge and new chapters.

But I love this presentation! I particularly love the hard/soft emotions.

I know! It shocked me too, Ellen. The dirty fighting content cam from a premarital counseling exercise we did backin 2007. It is incredibly illuminating.

Interesting variation in the different lists, though. Thanks for the great post.

It was enlightening.
