Proulx "these characters began to get very damn real"
Artiste:
Thanks bliss!
You say:
The afternoon passed in a daze, and all afternoon I was wearing this big grin because Jack and Ennis are REAL!
..........
Bliss, may I say, like I am an artist-painter who create on canvas, you are an artist who needs such charactors to animate your story... so you live them like Annie did and does... and we do too!!
WE, artists, often have such imagination come to us in different forms; illusion as real moments... as one form, I suppose. What you say, comes to me likewise at times too!! We never know when, do we??
Would love to read your story... writer you are interesting us!
Every day, we come to see Ennis and Jack, Alma and Lureen, etc., as OUR family, and, therfore, they become real like you say!!
Keep care, hugs! Long to see your story!! I would be pleased to read it!

I have tried in the past, without much suscess, to write a story about the spirits of the marginalized throughout time trying to get their story told in this world. Their coming together to decide on whose would be told and hiring the muse to find a likely recipient for it.
Jack and Ennis are real to me, because I fell in love with them in the dark of a movie theater.
Artiste:

Au revoir,

I think you may have to wait a while. I think the Jack and Ennis one's coming first. Now they're in my head I doubt they'll quit yammering until I write about them. In the meantime I just have to try and placate the others and tell them I haven't forgotten them and I do still love them, and I'll get to writing about them in a while (I think the Jack/Ennis one's going to be a short one anyhow, though who can tell? Once I start writing only they can tell me when the story's done)
