22 - Are the characters you create like you? If you write fanfiction, are there shades of yourself in the characters you choose to write about? Some people suggest that the mark of a great author is the creation of free and independent characters that are separate from the author. Can an author who writes characters similar to themselves still be a great author?
A bit, really. There's always a few shades of me in the characters I write, fanfiction and original fiction. And some characters I tend to be drawn to if only because of the "able to identify with them" thing. For example, being drawn to Anakin if only because he's a lot like me in a way -- that and the fact I think he's one of the most complex, interesting heroes and villains ever created. As for the mark of a great author being able to write about characters separate from them -- I say yes and no. On the one hand, it's a good thing to stretch your writing abilities in terms of characters, but on the other hand, I don't think it should reflect negatively on the author if they have characters kind of like them. As long as they aren't glorified self-inserts, and as long as the author is able to get into other viewpoints...I say it's all good. :)

Feb. 6th, 2013 09:02 pmTITLE: Emissary
SUMMARY: Snippets of the life of Obi-Wan Kenobi, adversary to Anakin Skywalker, emissary of the Force itself.
PROMPT: Immortality/Reincarnation
DISCLAIMER: I own nothing except this weird fusion.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: More playing around in the Anakin-as-the-Doctor-'verse. Originally envisioned Dooku as the Master, but considering Professor Yana, I figured Obi-Wan would work better. After all, Yana and OT!Obi-Wan are quite different, yet quite similar. That and dark!Obi-Wan is so complex and fun to write. Sort of a mix of compassion and cruelty, which is a pretty good mixture to have when it comes to villains.
( Fic under cut. )
