Its not a lake. Its an ocean. I was like WTF.
Sorry i just have too small a brain to digest all of the literary stuff.

My take on that, is that Alan Wake just wrote the lake to become an ocean, and did get overcome with the dark presense in and embraced his journey into darkness.  He decided to fight the darkness by entering it, and battling the darkness within himself.  By turning the lake into an ocean, he unleashed a lot of power for other creative people to create and change reality.  The cost of that is the unleashing of the darkness to.

Well, that is my take.  I am sure the truth is in the neighborhood somewhere.
