Our characters should have some idea of what they are looking for in life. What is their purpose? What stops them from achieving it? How do they handle the frustrations and disappointments of their fictional life?
One way or or another, we all look for meaning in life, especially at times of grief or any other forms of trouble. It kind of helps us to try to make sense of it all. One thing I've learned to accept as a Christian is it is okay to accept there are some things where making sense of it is not going to work. In my case at the moment, it is that grief is just grief and the way I am feeling right now is natural (and indeed there would be something wrong if I didn't feel the way I do). There is no sense, as such. I need to grieve and that's that.

AuthorI'm Allison Symes and I write novels, short stories as well as some scripts and poems. I love setting my work in my magical world, the Fairy Kingdom, and my favourite character is Eileen, who believes hypocrisy is something that happens to other people without caring that statement is hypocritical in itself! Eileen is huge fun to write for and about. Archives
