Bringing a novel to light - revealing the form and cadence, shadows and demeanor of a protagonist constructed from thin air - linking scenes and synchronicity across translucent time - holding up a glass brimming with chilled, never-tasted liquid, then sipping from it with intoxicated focus - allowing lovers to make a perilous mess of things, fall apart and nakedly come back together again - looking through conjured windows deep into someone elses snow-bound solitude, feeling utterly alone yet being all-connected: this is not writing. Its world-creating.Its raw, exposed dreaming. Its humbling. At first too personal and intimate to share, it evolves like a child into a life of its own until I have no say in what comes next. Its what I wake at 4am to say Yes to, the spinning possibility of a new story relentlessly commanding me to write it down so it can whirl in your experience.
