Every time I hear "it's not up to the character", I always know that person isn't a writer.

are you one of those writers who likes to pretend they're a shaman who's communing with their characters, or whatever

(Anonymous) 2017-05-02 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Please tell me you're not one of those people who thinks that "headspace" is a real thing and your "muses" run around inside it.

Signed, an actual published author.

Every time I hear someone ramble about how their characters call the shots, I know to smile and nod and start looking for the nearest exit.

Hahahahahahaha no.

It wasn't until I actually stopped thinking of my stories as being unchangeable because they were the "true" stories of actual people that lived in my head and started listening to feedback that I started actually selling fiction.

I've noticed that people who do that whole "the characters really exist, I'm just the stenographer who writes what they tell me to" thing tend to be the most rabidly crit-averse people around--Anne Rice, Laurell K. Hamilton, and Stephenie Meyer, I'm looking at you!
