One author I adore has so many characters that I have to stop and do a "wait, which one is this?" whenever I start a new book. ;)<br /><br />Marie-at day job can't log inAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268238247379169028.post-47307791208427884362016-06-23T13:00:36.069-07:002016-06-23T13:00:36.069-07:00I love that!

I seem to have more trouble doing that with my main character than my secondary characters. Perhaps because I feel I spend more time with the main character and so can develop their personality over the course of the story. A well placed individual characteristic would certainly work faster and be more memorable.Sharon Rivesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08973226291032550889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268238247379169028.post-20358906458057814082016-06-22T10:03:05.478-07:002016-06-22T10:03:05.478-07:00Interesting thing to think about.
