Rod Collins
I like story telling. And I like the solitude and the time spent with my characters. At times, the characters just take a story over, and then I chase after them as fast as I can.
Most of the characters in my stories are fashioned after people I've known and admired, so it's a way of being in touch again. The weak and evil characters in my books are also based on people I've known, sad to say.
And sometimes, I just amuse the heck out of myself as I pound away on the keyboard. If I read the story aloud to my patient wife and she is amused also, then I count that bit of writing as a success.
