![]() It was during the night watchman job that he met Alice.Īlan's first short story, Errand Boy, was published in Dark Vision magazine in 1996, when Alan was only eighteen years old. Prior to becoming a full-fledged writer, Alan would often take on odd jobs, with one of them as a night watchman in order to help inspire his upcoming stories. In his teen years, Alan became a fan of Stephen King, who inspired him to become a writer when he grew up. Their friendship would continue for years thereafter into their adult lives. Alan was typically the one causing this, with Barry bailing them out. ![]() Alan would later learn that these events had been written into his reality by the poet Thomas Zane, possibly implying that Zane himself created Alan.Īlan befriended Barry Wheeler at a young age, the two of them often getting into trouble. From that point on, Alan was no longer afraid of the dark and kept the Clicker in his possession. She told Alan that the light switch had the power to banish the darkness, and that it was a gift from Alan's father. When he was 7 years of age, he was deeply afraid of the dark, to the point that his mother eventually gave him an old light switch she called "the Clicker". Since he was born, he suffered from a rare condition that made him overly sensitive to light.
