You don't understand people wanting to be part of a team?

I mean in the sense that for me, fiction is fiction and I don't want to be involved in it. I love reading stories about the characters and writing my own stories for them and sometimes even coming up with brand new original characters to play with in an existing universe, but I don't want ME to be any part of that.

Like, I can understand thinking "this group could really use a character who is more down to earth" and then writing in a new character that fits that bill, but that character wouldn't be me, they would be their own distinct character that I came up with specifically for that purpose, if that makes any sense?

Okay but we're not talking about you, you know? Do you not know how to empathize or understand someone else's experience? That may sound snarky but it's an honest open question. People have given you some good answers, yet you seem really stuck on "understanding" equaling "I want to do this" and that's not what it is.

DA

Maybe they write with the assumption that the writer's opinions will be revealed through the plot and other aspects of storytelling.

Some very introverted people would balk at the idea of a fictional version of themselves. It would feel as if they had just published a personal diary page of theirs, for the whole world to stare at.

Above anon and honestly, maybe that's why I just can't understand it at all.

I don't write with the idea that my own personal opinions have any bearing on the story in the slightest. The story and the characters are completely separate entities from me, I write with whatever makes sense for them in mind regardless of how I personally feel about it. So the idea of putting a character in that's supposed to be a representation of me is like breaking the concept of fiction?
