Re: Ranting about your main characters

Still doesn't make it a good thing, and it really isn't conducive to the writing process.

I have never read an interview where a well-regarded literary writer said anything like that. Writers like Stephenie Meyer? Sure. And yeah, she's successful, but she's not a superb writer by any means.

And maybe you've read more interviews and quotes than I have but "the story/characters are living things/treat them as if they're real/think of them as my children" seems to come up a lot, and like I said I haven't read all of their stories so I can't judge if they're good or not. But I read it as OP venting about their mental block and maybe being a little over-dramatic. It's not really hurting anyone even if their writing is bad so I don't see how it can be a good thing or a bad thing?

And hey, maybe they want to be a writer like Smeyer. Some people are in it for the fame and money rather than sharing stories.
