“I love the long form that streaming allows. (Image credit: AppleTV+) Stephen on making Lisey's Story into a TV series Julianne Moore plays widow of successful writer, Scott Landon. I'm not Scott Landon and my wife is not Lisey Landon, but at the same time you have a foundation to build on, and then you build your own fiction on that real base." The idea for Lisey's Story came from that and from wondering how my wife would act without me. "For a minute, I thought that I was haunting my old study, and this is what it looks like. I was still pretty sick and really only halfway in my right mind from a fever, and I thought to myself, 'I've died. "When I got home from hospital, my study was totally empty, all the books were gone, the magazines were gone, the mementos, the plaques, the photographs on the wall, the pictures, everything was gone. It’s about the idea of the writer and where ideas come from because when writers make things up and when it’s going really well, they go to a different world. Maybe it’s because I wrote it after coming so close to dying, but it’s also because the character spoke to me. " Lisey’s Story is a different thing for me.
