“On the night of the murder I was at home, asleep. The characters in my dream can vouch for me.”
“I write because, if I don't, my characters will murder me in my sleep.”
“I went home each night dizzy and sick. He was murdering me with the sound of his voice.”
“I close my eyes, then I drift away, into the magic night I softly say. A silent prayer, like dreamers do, then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.”
“I do not dream anymore, nor do I sleep. My days are empty, my nights endless. My only thought is of her, this murderer. But despite what you say, she brings me life. ”
“His stories are good to hear at night, because we can dream about them asleep; and good in the morning, too, because then we can dream about them awake. (Cowslip)”
