Character sketch

Unstable and usually a little psychotic girls have been the last few main characters I written about. I try to write dramatic character but I tend to have a harder time with them because I can't take myself seriously when I write. I love watching drama based movies and  TV shows and reading books with a lot of drama but I struggle when writing it. I'd like to write a story of a character in a tough situation, but then there are some things that hit so close to home that I'd get started a feel like I'm not doing my main character justice. In my mind turning real situations into a story whether that be writing, visual media, songs; etc is an honor. As the storyteller you have the oppertunity to be you're character's advocate. Create them into whatever you want.  I want to write a story about a man or a women who is faced with a challenge, works hard on their own person and is victorious. I want to write a story about a character who in the beginning has a negative view of the world and has this realization that m aybe things really do happen for a reason. That they can't control everything.
