Quote

I'm very drawn to characters who are very flawed. I'm less interested in characters who are just good or bad, because to me then they're not real people.

I love flawed characters, male or female, and I only want to talk about flawed characters, really, in what I do.

At the core, I try to write characters who are real people with real insecurities, fears, hopes, and dreams, which is why hopefully readers can identify with them.

It seems to me that most characters, in anything, are flawed in some way, just like most people. You look for the good in the flawed people and vice versa, and then try and make them appealing in some way.

You know, we have to take these characters - who, granted, have their separate personalities but, on a lot of levels, are pretty two-dimensional - and make them into people with flaws, with insecurities.

I think many people have contradictions to them and I love characters that deal with those contradictions.

I tend to always love material with flawed protagonists and morally ambiguous people.

I tend to have a pattern of playing misunderstood characters.

I like playing flawed characters, people who aren't perfect.

I like characters who are contradictory.
