“I don’t write for myself, but for him and his mother. I want him to come back to me for the sake of his poor mother, and we must find a solution for her because she will be the heroine of the story. I don’t like stories with male protagonists. The heroine of my story will be Gabi, with her universe, her long hair flowing by the sea, her tailor lover, her father, the Kohanu, and her son who wasted his life… For a whole year, I only wrote one page… I want a happy ending for the story… I want another ending. I try to imagine a different ending, but my imagination isn’t helping me. I don’t have enough imagination to find an ending for Gabi that befits her love story. And if I can’t find an ending for the story, how can I write?”
