"The Book as a Patient"

Yes, I agee with that!!! When I write a book, I put a lot of myself in it. Not in a way that it reflects, but the characters take one the way I think, and the way I speak. We are what we write, no matter what characters that we put into the story. Each character has a little bit of ourselves in it.

Yes with each book I wrote, I felt it almost start to breath when I typed that final word. Oh they still would need editing and publishers and promotion but that would be their growing up just as seeing them on a book store shelf was like feeling the pride of a father seeing his son graduate college.

My books under completion started to bug the heck out of me, nag nag nag, until they are finish, then, they smile contentedly as they left me exhausted.
