Everybody has a soul." I turn to Pelly. "And that means you, too." "I'm not so sure of that, " he says. "What does it feel like?" "Having a soul?" I look at Maxine, but she only shrugs. "I don't know, " I tell Pelly. "I don't have anything to compare it to- you know, what not having a sould would feel like." We fall into a kind of awkward silence. I don't know about the others, but I'm working on what a soul is and not coming up with a whole lot. I mean, I just always thought of it as me- what I feel like being me. But surely Pelly feels like himself, so that means he's got a soul right? But if that's not your soul, then what is? It's weird and not something you really think about, is it? .Charles De Lint

The thing to remember when you're writing is, it's not whether or not what you put on paper is true. It's whether it wakes a truth in your reader.Charles De Lint
