Spying On People, For the Sake of a Story
Writers often are observing their surroundings, the people around them, always ready to jot something down to use later. Sometimes the gems they take home are exactly what they saw and heard and smelled. Other times, the story only exists in their head. A face, a gesture is all it takes, and the imagination takes the wheel...
A blogger friend of mine, Rohin Kallat, has a post on December 15 called "Imagining Life and Love, In a Moment" that begins on a train. Since I have never traveled through India, much less on a train, that alone made it interesting. As the train rolls along--or not--the story also unfurls. Writers make ordinary moments extraordinary. Rohin does this. He freezes a moment in time, and really gets into his own head as a writer.
