Week 3: How much of ME do I write...

4/2/2018

I think the better question is, how much of me ISN'T in my stories?  In my first creations, still unpublished works, many of the characters are close to me, in their actions and beliefs.  In some ways, the characters come off as "Mary Sues," almost too likable to be believed. In edits, I need to go back and more real challenges to these original characters.

I'm generally a happy person, and believe in the good in others. I find with writing romance, this is good! As a reader myself, I want the characters to find their own happiness, despite any little hardships along the way.

Each story has bits and pieces of my real life. Family anecdotes or memories I'd like to preserve. Only those closest to me will be able to pick out those details. Sometimes choosing fact from fiction is difficult, but my readers should know me a little better after reading my works.

​Love, Cass
