A bit on my method of creation...
I have been writing seriously for ten years and written four novels, this is not the point the point is that i have never come up with an idea or stetted out a work...let me explain
When I finish a novel I become depressed beyond belief, this phase can last for weeks or even months. There comes a point during this depression that I fall into a trance like state (only two people have seen this happen) I apparently can feel no pain, my eyes widen like i am staring at something that is not there but that is overwhelming. This state can last anywhere from five minutes to two hours. When I come to I can not remember anything that happened during that time, nor what I saw in the trance but a new novel will be fully formed within my mind...beging to end and all that I have to do is get it down on paper. Has this ever happened to anyone else?
