Those who write are not gods. We do not create our worlds, our characters. Rather, we have something like a fae rath in our heads, picking up on the little "could-have-been" universes out there, the possibilities never realized in our own. Or ones that are quite real and alive, unknown save to the one who is tuned into it.

Hear hear. I've always believed that imagination is a subconscious link to another reality, and it's nice to hear from someone who agrees.
Consider this:
In the history of a world, there come crossroads where a far-reaching decision is made. Afterwards, one cannot help wondering about what could have been.
For every world in reality there are millions of variations based on the outcomes of these decisions. Can you imagine a world where America had LOST the Revolutionary War? A world where Romeo and Juliet lived happily ever after? A world where Harry Potter was sorted into Slytherin? Somewhere these world lurk on the edge of imagination, waiting to be seen.

Both a heart and a brain are necessary for survival. Without one, the other will quickly perish.

"I can say—not as a patriotic bromide, but with full knowledge of the necessary metaphysical, epistemological, ethical, political and aesthetic roots—that the United States of America is the greatest, the noblest and, in its original founding principles, the only moral country in the history of the world." - Ayn Rand
