I've said to my hubs many times over the years, "This is what's going to happen to this person . . ." He gives me a look and brushes it off. Weeks, months, maybe even years later, he says, "Bloody hell, you were right." I often feel bad for my predictions, but 10 times out of 10, I'm right - and that thing I predicted does eventually happen. It's not always nice being right. It's not even that I'm right, it's just that I see things without a filter. Over the years, I've grown more confident of telling people what I can see even when they don't want to hear it. I think I get this trait from Mum, who sees things too, and often has dreams that come to her, and spirits that speak to her from the other side. When one grandad died, the other who had already passed spoke to her as she was doing the gardening and said everyone was there now. When my friend Gemma died, Gemma came to my mum and said that it was amazing how fast she could move now. Mum dreamt I would have a daughter and a little later, I was pregnant with a daughter.
When I wrote the Nightlong Series, I made Ciara an empath because if she wasn't an empath, she would never have stayed with the crazy train that is Dante Sinclair. Empaths see beyond... Unless you're an empath, you don't know what it's like, and often empaths are creatives (I've written just a few books now). We see and hear all and it gets sooooooo VERY loud sometimes. When authors say they hear voices, I reckon that it's more than likely they're an empath. Literally when I touch my fingers to the keys, words just flow from somewhere, and I am the vehicle.
Because we're empaths, we will still see, even when you don't want us to. If we withdraw, it's because we're refuelling.
