Her shoulders lost to the mud and her neck steadily following, panic sets in. Grace futilely claws at the sides of the pit in desperation, but it does nothing to slow her inexorable slide to the depths.

Don't worry, she's not going to die. I posted a note about that in my latest journal. As for why I draw it, well, I'd say it's because it's more fun than drawing some other sort of quicksand stuff. I can't really explain it better than that without going into much more detail about my psyche than I'm comfortable with doing on an open forum. =P
Well seeing that you enjoy the suspence you create then I guess it is not so bad. And I guess I could be still working down a bit from my own fear of a similar sort, I got a journal on it if you want to check it out. And I know it can't happen in real life, sinking that fast and deep, I don't I think I'm just rambling now.
I'd wondered about this as well (I've been on the edge of my seat with this series, and I'm pretty relieved at trile's response to you!) - I suppose it adds to the excitement somehow. Even though I don't like the real peril, there's still a pretend tension/danger/punishment(?) in my writing.
(WAM is a difficult thing to explain, isn't it? I fail at it abysmally every time.)

Honestly most of the fun of the quicksand is the peril it holds. I mean truthfully it doesn't truely exist, at least the sinking-to-death quicksand. I honestly love leaving my own series on a cliffhanger of "Well maybe even fully submerged could mean I escape or not" allowing for all fans to enjoy it ;3 I mean I myself am not a fan of death at all, but portraying cliffhangers in art is fun. ;)
