“If you strive to become a creative
writer, whether it be writing novels or short stories or plays, you must become
deeply involved in the lives of your characters. You have to laugh and cry and agonize with
them. And this involvement doesn’t end
in ‘off hours.’ Like it or not, they are
with you 24 hours a day. They become
part of your life as long as the story is being written.”
