“I started to write a series of fantasy novels when I was eleven. I have never taken anything artistic as seriously; since then, writing has felt like an attempt to get back there, to my bedroom, my maps, those races and languages and runes.” WritingLanguageFeltRaceFantasyNovelTakenSeriesArtisticMapsGet BackBedroomElevenRunesFantasy Novels Author:Ken Baumann
“I have found that the characters in my novels stay with me after a book has ended. I know them in some sense. I never map anything out. I just think until I am secure in the voice of one of them, and then let the character unfold.” ThinkingKnowsBookCharacterFoundVoiceNovelSecureMapsStay With Me Author:Marilynne Robinson
