Writers aren’t people exactly. Or, if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person.

For me, writing stories is an exercise in crawling into fictional skins. I inhabit each character for a little while at a time, jumping from host to host like Azazel in Fallen. (Hey, no judgment! I was an obssessed Denzel Washington fan, okay?)
( Of course it's not exactly the same. There's no Denzel, for one thing. )
