Number Two: Characters

Musings in Grayscale comic issue 3

Notes

A green room is a term from the theatre, a place offstage where performers hang out before and after their turns onstage.  As a writer, characters are my stock in trade.  I don’t know if all writers have this sort of mental green room, but I’ve heard of many whose characters talk to them.  Sometimes to the point where it gets downright annoying!
