Writing is seduction, quessentially. It is the art of seduction of drawing the reader into the universe of the master architect, who is the writer at play. I love openings that tease and promise something, but yet, you have to unfold the pages to discover the thrill of the chase. The masterful art of drawing you in, deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole…. Will you fall like Alice? Or will you discover some secret aspect of yourself after reading the novel? The subtleties of the craft is hard to master or comprehend, but delightful to… victimize the unaware reader into your universe and consume him/her into your bidding as you twist and turn their brains into bits and pieces till they lose themselves completely in you – and your story. That is… what I feel writers should aspire.
The examples listed above are indeed seductive to the senses, no matter how mundane a boiling pot or tea, or death at a pot roast can be, we have to create a parallel universe that draws the reader into an alternate reality or dimension. That is, the masterful art of imagination, and creation.. That we have to possess in our design. The design of new worlds and characters, new conflicts and plots.. To diverge from the norms, to reveal the truth in the lies, in the lies of the truth. Who knows what is real and what is not real…? The lines are blurry in the world of fiction and reality.
