I always talk about my characters like they're real people.

I like all my characters in one way or another, or at least I understand them.

I'm about my characters.

As a novelist, I tend to know significantly more about my characters than I do about my friends.

I think I have character, and that is what people like in me.

I get very involved in my characters. Sometimes I have a very hard time separating my characters from my life.

I just always gravitate toward the kind of characters or people that maybe you don't want to talk to for a long time at a party, but you do like to watch what they're doing.

I think I'm a part of all the characters I play, definitely at different times in my life. In real life, I'm kind of a tomboy. I like to read a lot I like watching T.V. I don't think I'm as interesting as my characters, but I like doing what I do.

Often you find the character through the things they say. How they talk about other people, how they describe themselves - which is very rare.

A lot of times characters are combinations of people I come across in life. I people-watch a lot.
