A Journal of the publishing process from the poet and writer Daniel J Robertson A day spent developing the characters of my work has proved something odd. It is only recently that I have realised my characters are all beginning to possess qualities attributed to myself. It is almost as if each individual make up is becoming a pictorial, spiritual autobiography. Here is a brief summary of my character Magdelene created for 'Jottings.'
My Character Magdalene appears nameless throughout the book. She is an elderly lady who appears in different time zones throughout history. She is a time traveller escaping the advance of technology. She believes that she has an aura of magic around her and was once a tarot card reader on the coast of Wales. She never stops to speak so her accounts are never heard, she is only mentioned when someone aware of her mystery spots her, and she is frightened of the advances in technology yet travels to find out what kind of damage the advance has caused over the years.
