So in the course of pursuing my new plot I have created some characters that are slightly different than normal. They have personality aspects that I, frankly, do not. In fact many parts of their personalities are things I specifically avoid or disapprove of. I am perfectly capable of writing these personalities from an outside perspective, but for this series I am going to actually be inside of their heads, from THEIR perspective. And honestly I do not know how I am going to manage that.
I am very used to seeing people act in the ways these characters will. Partying, drinking, flirting and attempting to get others to sleep with them, etc. However, I have no idea what goes through their heads during such activities. I think I am going to be seeking out other books I have that have such main characters, and see what I can gain from reading them. If anyone has any suggestions of when such characters are portrayed realistically and in an entertaining manner, please let me know!
