Book tellers

Today we went to the Writers' Festival. It was really fun to listen to the authors of the books. It's like meeting the creater of a world you love. Though I've never read their books, I understand the feeling of that union. It was especially awesome for me because I love books and I want to write my own someday.

One of the authors looks like a crazy guy, but I think those guys write the best books because they can be sucked into their own world and express it on paper. Now, that's what I'm worried about. I'm not crazy at all!! But I do love to make my own worlds sometimes. I get these visions of scenes in a movie, and I sort of just build around that. The problem with that is that it's hard to think of a story if you've got just that one scene, but it's also really fun. You get to control everything!! If you want a forest, you get a forest, if you want a serial killer, you get a serial killer. But then the story has got to make sense as well. I still think it's awesome, though.

Ha! Yes, they have, my friend, yes they have.
