When I write a character, it's always more about the aspects of their personality that I can relate to, and thus render more realistically. According to some, I have a pretty good grip on Buffy, on Haldir, on Miroku, on Norrington, blah blah. On some level, there is something of them in me, something that calls to me so that I can just channel them. Gender doesn't matter. But for me, it never really did-- I fall for the soul, not what the soul is wearing :)
