There's an interesting Peter Straub interview here. One of the quotes that stuck out as I read it was this one:
"That gave me the opportunity to wake up Tim Underhill from the dream world and bring him back into my real world, so l could spend more time with him and enjoy myself in the way you do when you see someone you've been missing. It sounds a little like The Twilight Zone, but the people a writer makes up have a great deal of reality to their inventor."
That seems to be true for many writers-is it true for you? It's certainly true for readers, who love series of books that revisit their favorite characters time and again.
