What the--? Phone number?! Address?! Are you kidding me?

What!? No! When developing a character, one must dive deep into their life, no? Name, age and looks ain't enough. They must be developed all the way, made people of. Wouldn't you agree?

Uhm *cough* If you say so *peers around cautiously*

:i

Thanks Abby :) I'm a little perfectionistic about the characters, if nothing else. They have to be perfectly developed in my mind.

I'm the same way, Emma. I totally obsess over my characters until they're perfect. The idea is that I could be them if I had to. (:

I just go along till my character.. forms itself

I'm obsessed with creating characters.
