Where in the real world is your dream vacation spot, why, and have you ever consider writing this place in fiction or non-fiction?
Have you ever wished you could travel to some exotic location? It’s not something most of us can just do on a whim. Writer’s in particular are often sure the coin to travel any great distance. Where would you go if you could go anywhere in the universe?
I’ve always loved my internal image of Ireland. It’s a rich setting that could offer a great base for stories I may write in future. Do you think you can write about a setting without having truly been there?
These locations in our minds have a unique glimmer to them that places we’ve truly experience lose. They have a firmament in fact but can often lose the ethereal air and mystery. Have you ever travelled somewhere and found your passion for the place faded?
What if you could travel beyond this world? Science Fiction writers often create realities deep in space. Is the freedom to change aspects of our known environment something that appeals to you? What would you feel like if you suddenly found yourself in one of these strange worlds?
If I were standing on the cliffs of Ireland, looking out over the choppy sea, crashing against the rocks I’d probably shiver with the chill thought of blood that had washed those cliffs, the life that filled the soil. Ireland is steeped in a history I can barely begin to grasp. There are stories there, waiting to be told.
Can you hear them?
