 ****John Anthony Miller’s For Those Who Dare is #217 in the never-ending series called INSIDE THE EMOTION OF FICTION where the Chris Rice Cooper Blog (CRC) focuses on one specific excerpt from a fiction genre and how that fiction writer wrote that specific excerpt.  


Name of fiction work? And were there other names you would like to share with us? For Those Who Dare.  The original, or working title, was Nowhere to Run. (Right:  John Anthony Miller in September 2020)

What is the date you began writing this piece of fiction and the date you completely finished the piece of fiction?  This is my seventh novel, and it takes me about nine months to write the finished draft. I then send the manuscript to my agent, Donna Eastman. (Below Left) She’s a former editor at a NY publishing house, and she’ll go through the first draft, sometimes with assistants, and often suggest plot or character changes. 

(https://www.facebook.com/donna.eastman.80)   

I then start revisions based on comments received, which takes about three more months. So, from the time I start a book, until the time my agent sends it to publishers, is about one year.

Where did you do most of your writing for this fiction work?  And please describe in detail.  And can you please include a photo? I have a home office, the walls covered with bookshelves with a large desk in the center of the room. (Below Right) This is where I do my writing. I also often visit the locations of my novels which, in this case, was Germany.

What were your writing habits while writing this work – did you
drink something as you wrote, listen to music, write in pen and paper, directly on laptop; specific time of day?
I write throughout the day, usually get started about 6 am, and write directly on my laptop – usually through six or seven revisions before the book is ready for my agent to send to publishers. I drink coffee or tea, and prefer quiet, so I don’t listen to music or have any other distractions.

Please include just one excerpt and include page numbers as reference.  This one excerpt can be as short or as long as you prefer.

EXCERPT – submitted Chapter 1

Chapter 1

East Berlin

August 13, 1961 at 5:08 a.m.

    Kirstin Beck lay awake, tossing and turning, her blond hair spilling across the pillow. It was a difficult decision, months in the making, a path that once taken, would alter more lives than her own. Some would thrive, reaching uncharted destinations, while others faced destruction, caught in a spinning spiral that could never again be straightened. As the clock ticked, marring the eerie serenity that lives in the hours before dawn, the time to act arrived.

    She eased her slender frame from the mattress, ensuring the springs didn’t squeak. She paused, sitting on the edge of the bed, and listened to the rhythmic breathing of her husband lying beside her. When satisfied she hadn’t disturbed him, she stood, remained still for a moment, and then tiptoed from the bedroom into the hall. 

    She glanced at him again, ensuring he still slept, before going into the bathroom, removing her nightgown, and quickly dressing in black slacks and a grey top. She opened the door to the linen closet and reached to the back of the bottom shelf, behind a stack of towels, to retrieve a small satchel. It contained her personal papers: birth certificate, identity cards, important phone numbers, addresses, and money – West German Marks and American dollars – that she had painstakingly saved and hid from her husband. Careful not to make any noise, she quietly closed the door, cringing as the hinges faintly creaked. She stepped back into the hall, moving carefully in the darkness, and stopped at the bedroom door.

    Her husband still slept, facing away from her. He snored faintly, his breathing rhythmic, before muttering something in his sleep. She watched as he moved his arm, his hand feeling the empty space she created when she climbed from bed. He stirred, lifted his head from the pillow, and sat up. 

    She stepped away from the door, barely breathing, as seconds quietly passed. The bed springs squeaked as his weight shifted and then it was quiet, the silence punctuated by the moving hands of the clock. She waited a moment more and peeked around the jamb.

    He lay on his side, facing the doorway, but she couldn’t see if his eyes were open or closed. She glanced at her watch, knowing she shouldn’t wait much longer, and walked quickly past the door, hoping the aged floor boards made no noise.

    It was quiet. He didn’t speak, so she assumed he was sleeping. She hesitated, just to be sure, and then crept down the hall to the stairs. As she descended the steps, she stayed near the wall where the treads had more support, carefully descending one step after another. When she was halfway down she paused and listened but heard no noise from the bedroom. She went down the remaining stairs to the first floor, crossed the foyer and looked into the parlor. She could see the radio in the darkness, the record player beside it. A stack of records sat in a holder, all American – Patsy Cline, the Shirelles, Roy Orbison, the Platters – her most prized possessions. For a brief moment she thought of taking them, but realized they were only belongings, easily replaced, and there was so much more at stake. She entered the dining room and then the kitchen, where she grabbed her pocketbook from the table.     

    She took a note from the satchel and laid it on the table. Written days before, it explained why she was leaving, why she had no other choice, and how each would be better for it. She knew it was a cowardly way to end their relationship, but she couldn’t risk telling him – he was too strong, too determined, and he would argue and plead and gradually whittle away at her resistance until it no longer existed. It had to be done this way, in the darkness of night. She eased the door open and paused, taking one last, lingering look at the house that had been her home before stepping outside.

    It was chilly for an August evening, barely fifty degrees, and she crossed the small yard behind her end-unit rowhouse. It was more garden than grass; she had crammed every flower she could into the limited space, creating a kaleidoscope of color in an otherwise drab landscape. Now she would miss it. But she knew she could plant more flowers, just as she could start a new life. 

    Her narrow yard ended at a wrought iron fence, old and rusty, that marked the edge of a cemetery. The fence was bordered by overgrown shrubs and a lane that led to tombstones, graves and mausoleums. She walked along the fence and crossed a strip of grass between her residence and the neighboring Church of Reconciliation. Staying in the shadows, close to the overwhelming brick building that was dominated by spires and arched windows, she edged toward the rear. There was little light, only a quarter moon, and she realized the nearby street was dark. She hesitated, wondering why the streetlights weren’t lit, especially when her clocks ticked and her refrigerator hummed as she exited the kitchen door.     

    She sensed something wasn’t right but didn’t know what it was. She left the shadows cast by the church and crept quietly into the cemetery that stretched behind it. The graves were surrounded by neglected shrubs and trees, reminders of a once beautiful location that had since fallen into disrepair, just like the rest of East Berlin. Many of the graves were old, the tombstones worn, separated by dirt walking paths spaced evenly between them. Kirstin stepped cautiously, moving from one tombstone to the next, and was halfway across the cemetery before she saw them, silhouettes at first, and then more distinct as she got closer.

    Several East German soldiers, spaced four or five yards apart, stood at the edge of the cemetery. Others were huddled in pairs, whispering, and she saw the faint flicker of a cigarette held in a soldier’s hand before he moved it to his mouth. Their grey uniforms were barely visible, blending with the darkness. She studied the string of soldiers, stretching like a ribbon in both directions, and knew something was drastically wrong.    

    In the distance, thirty feet from where the soldiers stood, was a simple stone wall, barely three feet high, that marked the edge of the graveyard. The old wall, and twenty or thirty feet of graves adjacent to it, was located in West Berlin. She only had to get to it, scale it and she was free, fading into the West like thousands of others had done before her. But tonight, it was different. Tonight, a line of soldiers stood on the border, waiting in the darkness. But waiting for what?

    Germany had been divided since the end of the Second World War – communist East Germany and free West Germany. The city of Berlin was also divided, the communist East, administered by the Russians, and the free West, governed by the French, British and Americans. To complicate the issue, the city of Berlin was a hundred miles inside East Germany, making West Berlin an oasis of freedom in a socialist desert. Kirstin lived in East Berlin, in the Russian half, but her grandmother lived in West Berlin, in the French section. Residents had always moved freely between the sectors, even though many went to the West and never returned. It never seemed to matter before, but she realized with a sinking feeling, that maybe it mattered now.

    She heard the hum of machinery, distant at first but growing louder. She peeked from behind a mausoleum, wondering what was happening. The noise came closer, an engine, a truck or some sort of vehicle. She paused, eyeing the short stone wall only sixty feet away, but guarded by soldiers standing before it. Should she risk escaping, running through the cemetery, past the soldiers, and leaping over the wall, hoping they couldn’t catch her? 

    Before she could act, the noise came closer and the border was bathed in light.  A searchlight sat in the rear of a truck parked along the edge of the graveyard. It cast a bright light along the wall, directly in Kirstin’s path. She crouched, hidden, as men in worker’s clothes and more soldiers exited the vehicle. Disillusioned and frightened, she retreated, hiding behind shrubs and tombstones, slipping through the shadows on her way back home.


Why is this excerpt so emotional for you as a writer to write?  And can you describe your own emotional experience of writing this specific excerpt? I included the opening chapter of the book as the excerpt. It’s set in East Berlin in 1961, just as the Berlin Wall is being constructed. I found the time period so intriguing because people risked their lives to escape from East Berlin just to taste the freedom that we take for granted. In the book, the lead character is trying to flee many monsters – an oppressive society, a husband who spies for the State – and she’s desperate to reach relatives that live in West Berlin.

    

I found it very emotional that people risked their lives to obtain the freedom that we enjoy – and so often take for granted. Over 150 people died trying to escape from East Berlin during the 27 years that the wall was constructed.


Were there any deletions from this excerpt that you can share with us? And can you please include a photo of your marked-up rough drafts of this excerpt? I usually write revisions in color-coded font. The revision I submitted is a note from the author that my agent wanted as a prologue so people would understand the historical references. I included the first paragraph of the first chapter to show where it was added to the book.
