People use fiction to escape from their own realities. The stories that have lasted through the ages have all been epic fantasies--The Iliad and The Odyssey, Beowulf. And think of our era's best sellers--a mistreated boy who becomes a renowned wizard, a teenager loved by a compassionate vampire.
But Fiorella also needs her fiction to be plausible. Even the one vampire novel she wrote made sense.
Dear God, she'll never get published.
Yes, she will. Get a machine to write. ;-)
