Claire Fullerton
It is always the story I'd like to tell that inspires me to write! Typically, the stories come from real life or some variation. I stay inspired because I treat a project as a full-time job. In a sense, I live with the inspiration to finish what I've started because I'd like the entire story to be told.

Claire Fullerton:
Hi Claire. I'm asking this question of several writers, some friends, some strangers... When you take bits of your own memory or real-life experience and insert them into a story, how do you transfer ownership from yourself to the story? Or do you distance yourself at all? Do you prefer to directly *confess* and let the autobiographical bits stand, emotionally hot? How do you deal with this kind of material? Thanks.
