I just had an epiphany about The Liche of London, which is my Nanowrimo project this year.  Typing that last sentence, I realize I haven't posted an entry detailing my current original fiction WIPs.  I will probably have that up sometimes this weekend.

Anyways, I was sitting at the kitchen table eating those microwaveable White Castle burgers and I started thinking about this guy I like.  For some reason Aiden (the male MC) popped into my head.  I thought about the two of them for a second and it hit me.

Without realizing it, I've taken aspects of the guy I like and incorporated them into Aiden.  That got me thinking about Helen (the female MC) and Bridget (the supporting charc.).  I realized that both of them represent who I could have been, what I could have become if certain things in my life had happened differently. 

That's when I started crying.  Not sobbing, but I did shed a few tears.  I don't think they're tears of joy, but that's part of what I'm feeling right now.  I have had so many problems trying to relate to these characters and then they pop into my lap.
