Still, I’d be lying if I said I never fantasized about who I’d cast to play my characters, given the chance. I see humans for all their endearing little quirks, and that’s what I write about – the freckle under their left eye, the birth mark on their leg, their lopsided grin, the wrinkle between their eyebrows, the unique shade of brown that is their hair, or their skin, or whatever. *gasp* Right? Sometimes I’ll make a Pinterest board with muses, but usually, it’s a character I can dream up only in my head. I think it helps us connect, and of course, to dream.Īs for me? Well… I’m not usually a “cast a celebrity” kind of writer. In the romance genre, especially, we love to cast the celebrities we feel would play our characters (or, as a reader, the characters in our favorite books). Plus, how incredible would it be to reach a new audience in that manner, or even to just see the characters we dreamed up in our minds come to life on the big screen? It’s impossible not to dream about – especially since a lot of the time, we WRITE with visual elements in mind. I think one of the most common fantasies a writer has is seeing their words transformed into a movie or television show.
