The end of 'Hollow City' left the peculiar children in a very precarious spot, and that's just where 'Library of Souls' begins.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
'Library of Souls' is longer than 'Hollow City' by a considerable margin, but this time I was on the right track from the beginning, so I never had to start over. It took about 15 months, all told.
I think that souls agree to come in and do what they're going to do and then leave when they're going to leave. So there's nothing tragic when a soul leaves. I think it was already preordained.
I thought of the soul as resembling a castle, formed of a single diamond or a very transparent crystal, and containing many rooms, just as in Heaven there are many mansions.
In the end, I don't think you can find soul. Soul finds you.
I think 'Hollow City' only took a year and a half to write... but it felt like two and a half!
There are souls in this world which have the gift of finding joy everywhere and of leaving it behind them when they go.
The soul is healed by being with children.
I have no memory for what happens in what books. I don't know when I might remember a scene, but beats me what book it's in because there are 14 of them now.
Some things, I think, like fairy books and secret doors, are only meant to be found by children.
The beautiful souls are they that are universal, open, and ready for all things.
