Before writing my stories, I listen to music, watch movies, look at nature (especially the trees, the clouds and the sky) or daydream. These things makes me inspired. Whenever my family travel to distant places where there are rivers, woods or forests and mountain tops makes me emerge into a new place and I begin to create a new world inside my head. Riding on the plane, a ship or using land transportation makes me see the world in a beautiful way.
Creating a new world inside my head will fade away if that world won't be created. Writing the world I formed inside my head makes me see the creation I did. This includes the characters I have created. I don't create characters that aren't real. I write not to impress but to express.
My mom often tells me not to be afraid or be scared whenever we watch horror movies. She said that I should always think that there are movie crews, directors, make- up artists, cameramen and producers around. She said that the actor isn't alone. Yes, the actor isn't alone BUT THE CHARACTER IS ALONE. I know that she is right but I believe that when a story is created, the characters are real inside the head of the writer and the director.
You inspired me by your response. You also gave me some tips that I should try. Thank you
All my characters and even the characters of other writers are real to me. I believe that reading books or watching movies makes a person enter into someone's head and let them see the reality of the world he created inside his imaginative mind.

Ha, ha! I've sat with a couple of mine down at the carwash... They talk to me while I wait. One of them is really into books. The other says the darndest things!
