So, I managed to track down the 'living' version of D A Payne. He lives in the same town as me (hence my finding his cheques locally).
His Name is also Daniel.
I found him on facebook and have sent him the following message.

Hi Daniel, you don't know me but I think I have something of yours.
I was walking up to the hospital from Ram Gorse (where I live) with my kids a few days ago and I found three cheques on the floor in your name. (D A Payne).
Nothing too strange about that, I know, until you know a little more information.
I started writing a book just over a year ago now. It's a novel about the strange nature of reality. The lead character is called, wait for it... Daniel Payne! Not only that but all the other characters names are anagrams of this name. Nadine Paley is his ex-wife and Lenny Depaia, his best mate.
So imagine my surprise when I find those cheques on the floor in the name of someone who I invented!!!
Let me know if you'd like the cheques back and what you think about this weirdness!
Cheers
Mike

FICTION

Fiction is the most powerful form of MAJICK commonly practiced(and socially accepted) in the modern time. To be fully functional(and thereby further empowered), it should be read aloud. Many popular titles can be obtained as audio files delivered in a variety of technological mediums(truckers prefer CD's; shop the titles available at a nearby truckstop). The best(most POWERFUL) titles to acquire are 1)unabridged & 2)read by their authors. Another variation has several 'actors' reading various parts. Some have music and/or sound effects added.
The MAGI acheive their desired(sometimes accidental) effect by manipulating powerful word symbols to CREATE novel new original IDEAS. Many authors admit that they have recieved help from some other intelligence that they assume is located outside their minds; admit that their writing project had taken on a life of its own once they had begun the writing process in the usual way. They can further create new outcomes by 'inventing' characters who then begin saying, doing & thinking things they never would. Imaginary settings can easily have magical aspects or properties built right into them. Some characters are immortal(look what happened when a certain writer tried to kill Sherlock Holmes). Some characters can be kidnapped by Hollywood film producers.
The right book can change the mental constructs in the minds of enough people to produce sweeping social change(note I have not used the term improvements here). Sometimes the most powerful ideas are passed off to unsuspecting writers by pundits who relish their own anonymity(or safety). The most innocuous 'magical formulae' can have unforeseen consequences; can affect one individual in a quite different way than intended, or in quite the opposite sort of way that the material is being recieved by the masses. Julian Jaynes disseminated his ideas through commercial media channels and brought about consequential results of a character and magnitude that I feel sure were quite unpredictable.
Sometimes a book can lie around for a very long time, just ticking like a bomb, until a new discovery occurs and the ideas explode into a more fertile 'set' of imaginations(six very famous Romantic poets spring to mind). The Bible could see such an explosive resurgence soon, if Thomas Jefferson's ideas about freedom FROM religion could be invoked on a wide enough scale. Times change and inquiring minds seek different stimulation(I felt certain that Geraldo Rivera had pronounced the final word on zombies!) Somewhere the potent idea of a thermo-nuclear device lies peacefully sleeping(beware the Prince's terrible kiss)! One day intelligent life forms may even be discovered on THIS planet.
Neal Stephenson's latest effort(REAMDE; you should probably just pronounce that as read-me) will certainly awaken in the strangest of places a lurking desire to fire a handgun! The counter-spell may be buried in Michael Moore's latest; if Oprah says this is so. As December 21, 2012 fast approaches I am preparing for the biggest non-event since Geraldo opened Al Capone's secret vault on live TV.
The internet has arrived with millions(or is that billions already?) of untrained magicians placing their magical formulae in searchable caches where they may at any time acheive a potent connection that could create WHATEVER from only ones and zeroes. We, on this tiny, and still shrinking planet, urgently need a curriculum for training up responsible practitioners of this potent MAJICK; one that will be quickly adopted by all the governing bodies and immediately put to use in all our public schools(while furiously building more of them across the globe). Otherwise, we await a disaster something like the one that the Phantom warned of in the missive he signed simply O. G.!
But alas, we live in a society that knows nothijng of this MAJICK; was taught not to believe in MAJICK by...

Karl Stewart who teaches our Tuesday evening Word Fellowship class(we call ourselves M.I.H.I.[made in his image]) would love this "I wrote him into existence." stuff! I prefer to think that the spoken word has more power, but perhaps you(and others) have been reading this stuff aloud. Perhaps you & the kiddies were time-travelling as well?? Why don't you deposit a substantial amount of this character(whom you have created)'s funds into your account? That should earn you an introduction.

ideas or words.... power... its a tricky one that one....

surely words are used to convey ideas ?

and if all ideas exist in the big idea.....

why say what you think in the first place ?

just a thought
