READER’S RECOLLECTION OF ‘DARK SECRET’ INSPIRES BLISS
Writing is a solitary pursuit.
When I sit here and make up characters, create conversations and orchestrate scandalous scenes, it’s literally all in my head.
But something magical happens when I write a book.
Other people read it. That’s when all those characters, conversations and scenes are literally in their heads!
I was delightfully reminded of this on Christmas Eve, as I did two readings at a party in a colleague’s home. There I met a woman who’d read Dark Secret when it first came out in 2000. It’s now in its second printing and it’s being shopped for movie rights in Hollywood. Well, this woman vividly recalled the characters, settings and scenes — which had popped out of my imagination!
Wow, what a thrill to experience the phenomenon that my words and ideas made such a lasting impression!
