When creating characters, I looked deep into my soul and found traits within me that I felt needed to burst into action. There is some wickedness (Madison) in everyone as well as the dream style, look and popularity (Gabriela Whitley). There's that humorous friend (Jimmy) we can't live without and that sports playing boy (Camden) that catches your eye. There is also that one mysterious person we have all wondered about. That person (Maddox) you've never met but their style has you undressing them with your eyes and letting your imagination go wild. There's even those characters that just pop up unexpectedly (Kellan, Suki, Elena ) and though they seem to be fill-in characters, they end up with a role in the next book and find themselves part of the lineup before the series is done.
Over this next week, I plan to interview my characters to paint that image in your mind, whether you have read or might be getting ready to read Gabriela Whitley: The Rise of the Kingdom. Some characters are nasty and refuse to cooperate with the media and some eat it up. Perhaps it will be noticeable or perhaps not.
