My character is still in development. I will be Madame VanDeusen, adventuress and potions maker extraordinaire. I guess, then, that my character will be a mix of chemist and adventurer. I am going to a steampunk faire at the end of the month, so for now I'm using whatever I found in my closet for a costume.<br /><br />Looking for any ideas on character development. I have a notebook that I keep for various interesting notes and development. Maybe I'll make a story out of it! But thanks for this information! Very helpful! I look forward to reading new posts!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04025588436980889254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16924800.post-42433661973525238062015-12-01T22:38:32.782-05:002015-12-01T22:38:32.782-05:00I am hooked on Outcast, please write a sequel.

I especially like the point you make about never having been an Extremely Ginormous Octopus, or a Magician's Assistant, etc. I just write her as she presents herself to me in my imagination, exactly the same way I write the narrator and protagonist of the stories.<br /><br />As a person. Well-said, and thanks for a thought-provoking read.

I hate it when you come across stories where the male characters are many and varied, while the females are either stock characters or mostly in the background. People may say that women are "mysterious" or hard to write about, but I think that's just an excuse for lazy writing. This article reminds me of George R. R. Martin's (author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series) reply when a TV news anchor asked him how he manages to write so many different and interesting female characters: "You know, I've always thought of women to be 'people'" (paraphrasing here)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16924800.post-69545169342531278812013-03-28T12:16:16.176-04:002013-03-28T12:16:16.176-04:00I love this post.

It took the show’s producers a long time to realise all the break-out characters were male and so they created Zoe and Abby. From the book, Street Gang: “We wanted a female lead character. If you think about the Mary Tyler Moore Show, some girls relate to Rhoda, who’s our Zoe, and some girls relate to Mary, who’s a girly girl. And we didn’t have that girl.” Keris Staintonhttp://dellasays.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16924800.post-25513837638557579582013-03-28T10:41:29.998-04:002013-03-28T10:41:29.998-04:00This is an issue not just with female characters, ...This is an issue not just with female characters, but with all characters that diverge from the White Middle-Class Male Heterosexual norm. If you write such a character, you can do what you want with them, and if the character suffers from OCD and shoplifts, then that's a comment, if anything, on OCD and kleptomania. If your main character is a Thai lesbian, then if you give her OCD and have her shoplifting, that's a comment on how Thai lesbians behave. Certainly having two Thai lesbians would be odd - because why would you need two different characters to say what you feel about Thai lesbians? <br /><br />Authors just have to be brave about it. If told "Women don't behave like that" or "No-one from Greece would ever say that", they have to be strong enough to insist that no group is homogeneous, that a character represents only himself*, and they tell the truth as best they can.<br /><br />*Did the "himself" jar a little?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14568800126778586538noreply@blogger.com
