I keep shouting ...My characters are rebellious too. I keep shouting at them 'I brought you into this world--I can take you out of it' <BR/><BR/>This doesn't seem to scare them. Sigh.<BR/><BR/>But I figure it's a measure of their character growth when the book is finished. And, damn, it's a measure of mine too :DLynda K.

If they develop differently, it means they have grown as a 'real' person, and we're seeing their personal issues.<BR/><BR/>Right?<BR/><BR/>Right? Please?<BR/><BR/>LOL - AngelaAngela Verdeniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098894045796700201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28436164.post-1161815997563217702006-10-26T05:39:00.000+07:002006-10-26T05:39:00.000+07:00I sometimes think that our characters are just put...I sometimes think that our characters are just put in our minds to challenge and confound us. They are those little hurdles in life that once we're past them we realize that they were building us up for a bigger, harder task. It's funny how some characters come so easy to us and others are so hard. I have one character from Immorati, my police chief Karl Urich, who was so easy to write in the novel. Well, now that he's the hero and the star, he's gotten what I equate to stage fright. His dialogue seems stiff and he's not as easy to write. I think it might be because he's going to finally get a shot at the woman he's REALLY loved for years and it's making him nervous. Now, if I can only transfer that motivation into the story, I think it might just work. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with your characters Xandra. I 'm sure you'll triumph. <BR/><BR/>-KatKathleen Scott/MK Mancoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872072913152568070noreply@blogger.com
