Sorry, my computer ran out of battery, but I’m back again!
Yes, I definitely base characters on people! Usually not purposefully though. I usually just realise, oh! So and so is a lot like so and so.
But I love when those disclaimers are in historical fiction novels, where the characters sometimes are real people.

Maybe authors should start putting disclaimers in the front of their books:
We do not condone the behaviours of any character that seems slightly antagonistic, and nor we do take any responsibility for any of their evil deeds.
I know, poor Curt didn’t deserve anything that I forced him to endure.
Yes, it’s such an entertaining way…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
People don’t actually expect us to take responsibility for our bad characters, do they?
Well, of course Curt did none of those things. Because he was a small angel. He definitely fell into the disabled angelic character trope that I see so many people complaining about 😛

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
Unless you become ruthless. Like me 😛
Haha no. But he might as well be, down to the fact that he’s Irish and has an accent. But he’s a character from a very old book of mine (and don’t even bother asking to read it, because. Nope. No chance. No one is ever reading that thing).

Poor Bathshua. She doesn’t deserve any of the things you throw at her (ah, look at me. Such a hypocrite!)
I’m currently reading over a really long and old character sheet I filled out for a character so completely perfect that I cringe now. I’m supposed to be taking the questions and filling out the sheet for another character…[Read more]

It’s two o’clock, so I guess it is afternoon. And yep, I’m free for a bit. How are you? How’s Bathshua going?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
@catwing Thanks 😀

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
I think I ended up watching all of it, but over several weeks and not in chronological order 😛 I know, we’ve discussed Dirk Bogarde before 🙂
Yep, I look forward to watching it properly.

@seekjustice Happy birthday!
Glad you found it. 🙂 -
SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years ago
Thank you! I am indeed. And guess what? My mum managed to track down a copy of the 1958 version of A Tale of Two Cities, which I hadn’t been able to find anywhere. I was pretty excited about that.

@rochellaine @ariel-ashira I’m here for a little bit. A short story thing popped up today and the deadline is the 10th. (I don’t have to do it, but the deadline was extended, so I’m thinking of a story idea to fit.)
I was sick for a few days. That’s why I was gone. 🙁
But I’m better now. -

@ariel-ashira praying for her.
@devastate-lasting I’m so sorry. Praying.

@rochellaine Sorry for my late response! It’s my birthday today, so I probably won’t be around 😀 I might find some time this afternoon though.
