I want my characters to feel real. So sometimes that means they’re indecisive or pigheaded despite knowing they are wrong. It means they tell lies and withhold truths. They’re prideful and guilty and hopeful and pessimistic and afraid and they contradict themselves. Sometimes in the same sentence. They all have flaws and they aren’t always tempered with positive traits. Sometimes their most shining choices have selfish motives. Sometimes their selfish choices have shining motives. I just hope that whatever they are, there are moments that seem relatable.
