sentient

A lot of people who read my novel 'Smog City' ask me why I never killed off either of the two main characters. To be honest, it's because I've given them life. Not literally of course, but since I spent so much time developing and creating my characters, they've ended up with complex personalities, in fact they're almost sentient in a way, and to write them off as dead would be like killing a close friend to me.

A sentient mind refuses to be confined by the parameters of its programming.

We are all born as storytellers. Our inner voice tells the first story we ever hear.

Some people are still alive only because they find being dead more boring than being alive.
