a fun novel? What is it about this story that's
fun to you? It's the romance it's always going to
come back to that supernatural thrillers.

Speaker 4 (01:21):
I used to do this exercise when I wrote it.
I had someone read the prophecies scripts out loud to me,
and I would have my eyes closed. And so the
goal was that while I was listening, that had to
feel as though they were open, like, oh, I'm vividly
seeing it even as I'm hearing it.
