Authors often speak about how a dream will lead to a novel or how their books seem to plot themselves...
And then there's the 'I hear voices".
This means the characters speak to the author, and away they go on a book adventure.
I wish 😐 my characters were so forthcoming.
My writing life:
#1 I always dream in color (technicolor). Unless the dream is a rerun, then I dream black and white.🎥
#2 If I do manage to dream about a book I'm writing, I never hear the dialogue. Why? Because a theme song is blaring throughout the dream. The decibel level in my head can be likened to "The Danger Zone" cranked up in a Dolby sound movie theater!
#3 I do, however, hear the dialogue in my head in snatches. Just enough to start or end a scene. Picture yourself seated in a coffee shop, and a couple walked past you...it's like that.
#4 Authors always fall in love with their characters. I love each of my heroes. But my favorite (as it should be) was my first. Lynx Maddox.
Well, you know authors conduct research...
According to various sources (Wikipedia, Wikipedia How, fan blogs).
💖Falling in love with a fictional character is not unusual, and many people have found themselves emotionally attached to a surface in a book, movie, TV show, or video game.
💞💑 Romance with a fictional character can also be an excellent opportunity to find an outlet for creativity and learn more about yourself and what you need from a relationship. 💒
Did you have a teenage crush?
Of course.💟
Who was your first book crush?
Me: Edward Rochester (Jane Eyre).
Movie Hero?
Me: Sean Connery as James Bond (though I didn't see the movies until decades later).
Television hero?
Me: John M. Jackson as Rear Admiral A.J Chegwidden on JAG.
Alien?
Me: Mr. Spock (Original Star Trek or movie version).
I'm sure you have your personal book crush.
Haven't decided? Here are four choices 😉
