They wake me and then refuse to leave me be until I have promised to write them down as soon as I get up.
There's nothing I can do.
As much as I would have loved to go back to sleep, instead I just move over and make room for them on the pillow next to me. They fill my head with images and lines, some in detail and others vague. I try to reason with them, beg them to please, speak one at a time, and please, try to be logical and coherent enough that I can make this into a book that someone will want to read.
They never listen.
But I do. I have to.
Since dawn and the dreaded alarm always comes before they have told the story all the way to the end, I never get to hear how it all turns out. The only way I can find out what happens to all these characters that they have told me about is through writing the books.
This might not be how real authors do it, I know. But that is where my books come from. That hour between 3 and 4 AM, when the night is at its darkest and the world is quiet enough for the stories to make themselves heard.показать меньше
