The image below came through my Instagram feed recently, and it caught my attention as a fun writing/reading question. Often, my writing buddy and I talk about our characters as though they are living, breathing people – when you put so much time and energy into something, someone, it’s hard to think of them as only existing on the page sometimes. So what if…
I think I’d take the Life Pill first, bring Kya to life. She’s the best friend of Alice, the MC from my first book. She’s bright and energetic and philosophical – and I think we would have some really fun conversations.
Then I’d take the Body Pill and walk around in Sally Owens’ (from Practical Magic) shoes for a little while – preferably after they have vanquished Jimmy Angelov back to the world of the dead.
Which ones would you choose?
