I start with a general idea of personality, likes and dislikes, hopes and fears, but I like to let my characters find themselves as they work through my plot. I've always found it interesting when one of my characters says something to another and I have to stop and ask myself, "How would he or she answer that?" More than once, I've re-written at least part of a character as a result.Are they in your head, fully formed, before you start writing? Or do you feel like you discover some of who they are as you are writing?
