It's an awesome feeling.
The most important part for me in creating a character is to have a very firm idea of what they look like. Otherwise I get confused about what their voice sounds like when I'm writing them. I know, it's weird. So yesterday I went hunting on Pinterest for pretty people, saved the ones that looked promising, and to my delight, a story began to form around all the pictures I'd selected. I've made up a dozen character sketches, and I'm still working out how everyone plays off everybody else, but it's all coming together really nicely!
Turns out that I'm writing a paranormal horror romance. I don't even know if horror and romance can rightly go together... oh well. It's going to be a blast to write anyway.
So, I'll see you after this madness is over.
