I've just had nothing to write lately which really kills me but last night I came up with a character. I can visualise him perfectly but because i have no idea what his background, the story he belongs to is about i can't even give him in a name.
Normally i come up with story ideas when i'm obsessed with something, though for that reason they never last. The last novel i wrote, consisted of no obsessions, it just came from inside me.
Therefore I have a crazy belief that now is the moment I should come up with an idea before i become obsessed with anything else. The problem is all i have is this character. No name, no background, no story, and character traits that are ever so slowly coming to me.
I watched Star Wars III last night with my friend and i suppose I'm getting a few characteristics out of Anakin because he's always been one of my favourite characters of all time. This is just as confusing for me because i have never wrote a sci-fi and have never imagined doing so. I normally take a history period and add fantasy or create my own world.
That said i do have this gut feeling that an idea's stirring up inside me, but the character i am visualising just seems to be EPIC so how can I develop him more and is it bad to have only a character, because loads of people say you have to have a "mighty theme" first.
