I think I've written 40 books, and none of them have been heavy on action. I'm an introspective person.
Lois LowryWhen I create characters, I create a world to inhabit and they begin to feel very real for me. I don't belong in a psych ward, I don't think, but they become very real, like my own family, and then I have to say goodbye, close the door, and work on other things.
