conversations.value: Typewriter in the Sky: The story begins in Greenwich Village, New York.\nThe main character, Mike de Wolf, is a struggling pianist.\nHis friend, Horace Hackett, is an author and popular pulp fiction writer.\nHackett is portrayed in the book as a skilled writer able to quickly produce voluminous amounts of material for pulp magazines.\nHackett writes under stress, as he is facing a deadline.\nHackett attempts to persuade his book publisher that he has almost finished writing his latest novel, while in actuality he has already depleted his advance payment prior to coming up with an idea for a story.\nHackett\'s publisher pressures him and he rapidly decides to place his friend Mike as the central character in his story.\nHackett writes about Mike as the villain in his book, a swashbuckling adventure story.\nMike enters the bathroom of Hackett\'s basement-level apartment, and hears the sound of someone typing on a typewriter.\nAfter electrocuting himself, Mike loses consciousness.\nHe subsequently awakens to find himself on a beach in the year 1640, as a character within his friend\'s novel.\nHe inspects himself to find he has a saber attached to his person, and is wearing strange attire.\nMike learns he is regarded in this world as the villain, Spanish Admiral Miguel de Lobo, a "pirate potboiler".\nHe knows that the villains in stories written by Hackett often do not come to a favorable end, and is therefore anxious to exit the situation safely.\nMike recognizes the specific work into which he has been transported: a tale by his friend called "Blood and Loot".\nAssuming the role of the villain, Mike realizes he must face off against a formidable opponent in the story, its protagonist named Tom Bristol.\nThe story takes place on the high seas in the Caribbean during the 17th century during a conflict among colonists.\nWhen a major event occurs, Mike hears the sound of a typewriter in the sky.\nMike\'s reality literally changes each time the author makes a change to the story.\nMike realizes that during times when he hears the audible sounds of the typewriter, his actions and words are not of his own volition, and when such sounds are absent he is able to make decisions for himself.\nMike falls in love with a woman in the story, and grows frustrated after realizing that she is just another of Hackett\'s fictional creations.\nAt the end of the work, Mike returns to New York, and is left with lingering doubts whether he is still a character in someone else\'s story.\nHe muses whether a "typewriter in the sky" is creating the world.\nMike looks up into the sky in search of this mystical device or its controller: "Abruptly Mike de Wolfe stopped.\nHis jaw slackened a trifle and his hand went up to his mouth to cover it.\nHis eyes were fixed upon the fleecy clouds which scurried across the moon.\nUp there\xa0– God.\nIn a dirty bathrobe.\n".
