He wouldn't do it, as long as he could control it. He's probably lock himself away somewhere to avoid it. <br /><br />3)Change? Back into a human? Definitely!<br /><br />4)His aunt, twin sister (who would be nagging him to change her into a vampire), his dignity, and self-control.<br /><br />5)Yes, he would believe it - but I'd be spoiling things if I said who that person was.Tessa Quinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12619129838476851241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-52616186155695999702010-09-02T02:33:18.748-05:002010-09-02T02:33:18.748-05:00Most of my characters would cringee at the thought...Most of my characters would cringee at the thought of living forever, with one or two notable exceptions.<br />Still this is a great exercise for getting to know your character. Asking what they would do if put into these other situations will really help us to figure out who our characters are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-84687103948189959822010-09-01T16:20:13.015-05:002010-09-01T16:20:13.015-05:00Dear Melissa,

I don't write fiction, but I love the idea of thinking about your characters so deeply that you try to figure out how they'd respond or do certain things.Erin MacPhersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11665098986271579372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-61326317598118267102010-09-01T08:21:41.354-05:002010-09-01T08:21:41.354-05:00Sadly, I don't think my characters would go fo...Sadly, I don't think my characters would go for the whole vampire thing. At least in my main novel they enjoy life and want to life it as it is, not be immortal and shunned by society.Amie McCrackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183468581148360197noreply@blogger.com
