The thought process of writers while writing their stories is very interesting because they are never the same.

Then at the very end the "treatment" line would come up, and all would be revealed...to the audience, if not to Dominic himself. Sort of a Sixth Sense-esque wham moment, or at least that would be what I was aiming for.

This was executed very well. It was very much a "Holy shit!" moment for me.

If someone screams, you can't really describe it by saying that they "yelled" or "shouted", because that isn't the same thing; if they screamed, you have to say they screamed. It's the only way. I have a sort of admiration for words that have effectively carved out a little niche for themselves.

The word "scream" connotes something very horrifying for me. And what Adelle did was very horrifying, probably even for her.

almost nobody ever goes "HO SHIT, A TALKING CAT". When the animal, or inanimate object, or occasionally plant life, shows up and says something, it's as if it was a person that was speaking - nothing worth commenting ( ... )
