From all of your fanfics and maybe even original works, who was the most difficult character to write?
Thank you for the ask, dear heart! Hmmm, most difficult character to write? ... Out of alllll my works? Even the original stuff?
I CAN FINALLY TALK ABOUT MY BOOK!!!
Usually I don't have any issues writing character. I can just click into their headspace and take off. Even with the really evil characters..
Except...
Vincent fucking Gallagher
THIS GUY is probably the hardest character I've ever had to pin down. I've had to go through like 3 drafts of the exact same chapter just trying to get him right.
So what's his deal? He has a crippling fear of vulnerability (man moment). So I'm trying to do this thing where even the audience is kept at an arm's length. But I'm also trying not to make him too broody. He still has to be likeable. We still have to root for him (I mean, he's the love interest, of course we have to root for him) So it's like walking this delicate balance of characterization to get him just right and BOY is he kind of pissing me off!
But it's okay! I finally wrangled him in! Now I've synced with him, and all is well! See? He's cooperating now!
