So, I was just talking to my girlfriend and was trying to describe something about one of my characters. I realized about halfway through explaining that this character sounded like they had zero morals/inhibitions based on my description until I went back and clarified some things. This also lead to me listing of 3-4 other characters she doesn't know that are absolutely horrible and now I'll have to explain them to her at some point.
Some of my characters just pop into my head and I'm not sure where they're coming from until they're already there. This leads to some interesting stories, but it also leaves me shaking my head at myself and wondering how I can write the things I do.
Basically... Do you ever stop to think about the characters you've created and realize how confusing or horrible they sound? Do people look at you funny when you're trying to explain your characters or stories? Things like that, basically.
