"Write to please just one person. If you open a window and make love to the world, so to speak, your story will get pneumonia."

While writing for a character that interacts with other characters not written by you does mean you need to consider external influences, just remember that you want to have fun, you know?

While I full heartedly agree with you on this, I'm still a little apprehensive. If you remember, I was under fire about Eternal Darkness' original manifestation. While not all complaints were totally unwarranted, she was picked apart before I could explain her entire story. That hit me pretty hard and ever since I've second, even triple, guessed myself on characters that I've created and while I persevere and stick around, I've felt like kind of an outcast because of that. I'm positive that feeling that way is entirely my fault. All I've wanted was to just be part of the group and have a good time.

Characters: Caden Vadoma (discontinued)
