I create the characters. They become apart of me; I create their personality, their features; I bring them to life. I know what they will do in every possiblesituation . Of course I have my favourites. I killed one of my favourites in the first book - Pain. He was an evil, twisted individual. He wasn't handsome, quite the opposite, yet there was something about him that I loved. In Telepathy I mention him, I almost resurrect him; I want him to play a part again but I can't, I killed him and that is how he should stay - a memory,
