The Back Story Is In and Between the Lines 8/15/2013 9:49:38 AM
Writing a main character's back story is hard. Most of my characters require detailed research. Sometimes I have not done it soon enough in a work's development. In those cases, I've had to call a time out on plot and dialog and record the back story so that my character would have a richness that is in and between the lines.
I didn't wait this time. I'm doing this hard work first. With any luck, you will be able to judge the results just before Christmas. Please stay tuned. Thanks for stopping by AS.
