30DoW: Day 20
Aug. 20th, 2010 07:59 pm20. What are your favorite character interactions to write?
Is it an interaction if it's just one person?
Because what I like writing about, being I'm into first-person at the moment, is what goes on in the character's head as they talk. It's like trying to keep a running dialog, but making sure it stays relevant and doesn't take over the text.
I like the inner workings, because I'm enjoying seeing the world(s) from a different perspective and describing it from that view. What they think about things aren't always what I agree with, and their opinions on other people are always fun to write. When they start talking is were it gets interesting (to me), because sometimes the dialog is straight forward, and what's going on inside is just setup for the next exchange, and then other times what they're thinking goes against what they actually say.
