When Characters
Escape
An interesting thing happens when I write. My characters escape from the page and run around doing things I never expected. And some characters are more difficult to control than others. In ENGRAVED, Amy was always keeping secrets from me. When I discovered them things would suddenly make sense and all was well, but I didn't appreciate her hiding vital information. I mean, you would think she would trust me since I created her and everything.
In PROWL, Wesley was the one who toyed with me, but what did I expect? He was a pretty shady guy….
But in ENTICE and UNVEIL there were a couple of decisions that Kenzie made that caused me to get a little annoyed. I had expected her to be a little more levelheaded than that.
Before beginning to work on DAZZLE, I had penned a detailed outline as always. I started writing, and then just like that I was sideswiped by Sam. Now, if anyone in this book was going to give me grief I knew it would be Sam. He is a bad-boy in every sense of the word. He doesn't listen to anyone and goes about life in his own way. However, his blatant disregard for me and my carefully constructed story drove me crazy.
Lucky for me, his unexpected turn made the story a bit more interesting. So instead of trying to reign him in, I followed him down the rocky path he set out for me. And just between you and me, I’m pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to stop him anyway. He’s pretty stubborn.
