“When you create a character, be it in a book or the person you are in your mind, you fall in love. You think you love them because they live the life you want to live or are safe in your imagination where you wish you could be instead of in a cold reality. But really…you love them because you created them and shaped them as if they were your own children. You see them smile behind your eyelids and bless them with the tragedies and morals that you know will sculpt their destinies. You give them a breath of life from your very breast; they are your other half. And you know what’s funny? When they reach their final page…it is not you who has entirely invented them…they’ve brought out the confidence and heart in you.”
