I am a firm believer that a good plot makes for a fun enough read, but it's not what binds us. If we don't care about the characters, we won't care – not in a lasting way – about what's happening to them.

I tend to like writing characters that are not typical heroes. Nora K. Jemisin Characters • Heroes • Like • Tend • Typical Heroes • Writing
I have always loved and avidly read the novels of Jack London, Jules Verne and Ernest Hemingway. The characters depicted in their books, who are brave and resourceful people embarking on exciting adventures, definitely shaped my inner self and nourished my love for the outdoors.
