Yes but most often it's the characters in my nonerotic fiction that I write. Every single day I'm half in another world.

Shit, now I'm thinking about actually writing that story. "Writer does something horrible to one of their characters, character gets revenge."
Been doin' it for a while - see Critical Response. FMC didn't like what happened to her in the last story, and now she's escaped.In all honesty I should clarify that I'm having personal issues with this kind of thing. I feel like I used to have perfect control of the stories and their construction but now I don't. I feel like the character has outgrown my mind and simultaneously my mind has outgrown the character. Not in the sense that we're drifting apart but that we're in grave danger of doing so! I'm freaking out inside. I did something to her that wasn't very nice.
My characters all live in a little shared flat, just up the road.Do you ever talk to your own characters in your head? Do you ever have unpleasant conversations/interactions with them? I draw a lot on the visuals in my head, and sometimes they get outside of my own control... I won't put the darkness behind the scenes on open display, but don't you ever feel like your characters are in like a tenuous relationship with you?
Feel free to ask me more about it, but I need some kind of kinship in this.
After my grandparents died in the 90's I started to write, and I wrote over 1000 pages of a book based one one character and his family. I still have those characters in my head, and I think about them all the time. How would they react? What should I do to make them more interesting? I think of stories for them and new characters to bring into their make believe lives. They became a big part of me. I would think about them nightly as I lay in bed to sleep. They relaxed me. some characters I have brought to my stories here, but have changed them a bit. Their true characters are for me and me only.Do you ever talk to your own characters in your head?
