Lol, I'll take it one step further--- I wish celebrities wouldn't go around announcing anything personal about themselves. I don't personally want to know who they sleep with, what their politics are, about their religion/lack thereof, how many kids they have, what those kids wore yesterday, what they named their cat... Beyond seeing them do their job or perhaps maybe talking about it (like discussing their method, the making of a film, etc.) I don't really care what they have to say and I don't understand why anyone cares, really. No more than I would care if plumbers or bus drivers or nurses took a microphone to spout off their personal opinions on any number of topics at random.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
