Comment on Stamp: Characters are children by Jammerlee

My characters are closer to me than many of my friends and real people, as I love them so much. When I do my best to keep up with them telling me their stories, I reveal more and more stuff about each and every one of them.
In all seriousness though, I don't write the stories for my characters. They tell me what to write and it goes down on paper, or rather a text document.
