How can I go about characterization so that the character molds him/herself? I can start out with a philosophy. I can think of what this person’s essence is and revolve all traits that make a persona round this one thing. Ayn Rand used her Objectivism philosophy to mold Howard Roark and Dominique Francon. My theme is circular. I want to make the world seem as small as a grain of sand, within which billions of universes might exist. If you could see a picture of what my story looks like, it would be 3-D, if I were spatially talented, I could probably draw it…
It kind of looks like a veiny eye, but the idea is that all the lines are interconnected somehow. This is bigger and better than 6 degrees of separation. Why? Because it’s modern. It will show how technology can bring people together and some apart.
