And that's how you develop a character: "How do I humanise those three men? I don't have to. (And I don't think they're that different from any other human.) The reader does the humanising, because that's how my method works: I show the reader something none of us see in the real world, not even with our nearest and dearest – someone's innermost thoughts and motives, not what we think they are but what they actually are. You're in their heads, and you can move from one mind to another and experience just how differently each one sees the world." Love this!
