So, Hi, I guess I'll jump right into this first... um... thingy.

I have alot of voices in my head. They are not really... pieces of me... well, I mean they are, but what I'm saying is they are not aspects of my personality.

Well one is but he is in the corner playing with lots of sharp objects. He does not bore easily.

They are characters. Or Muses, if that's the term you use. (Though I like to keep the word 'Muse' for the character I RP as. And yes, I have one of them. Yes, it is Natemare.)

But back to the voices. There are alot of them. Actually, voices is a term I don't very much like. Because some of them don't have voices yet. They don't know how to speak. And... as a creator I feel bad that I have not had time to teach them to speak.
Those are the character I have half developed, and who have not a single word to their name story wise. They are basically ideas. Faceless, voiceless, ideas.

Again, I feel bad I haven't developed them but I can't even help when I create them. They just come, take a number and sit around in my mind. (Though I hear the TV programming is phonominal)

Then there are the characters I have developed. They speak to me more, and because they do, I get to know them better.

Alot of authors I know say "I tried to get so and so character to do this but he just wouldn't listen!"
And, while it sounds weird, it is true. These characters are living breathing idea's with thoughts and lives of their own.

But, once more, back to the characters.
I'll skip the one I talk to the most right now and save him for later.
The most... noisy voice in my head is not the main Character of the novel I'm writing, suprisigly, but this could be my fault because I developed him to have that kind of attitude. That kind of personality.
His name is Aiden. He was the first voice I realised was a voice, too. When I was making him for a story I have not finished (One day I swear I will write it. Cross my time lord heart. Yes. One heart.) He haunted me. Everywhere I turned he was there. And this story was fashioned to him as a character. He came before the story 'plot' and 'idea'. This kind of writing is unhealthy, I fear. Don't try it at home. It keeps you up at night.
He also has a brother, named Matt. He is less talkitive, but a kind and gentle soul. For a vampire.

Other than those two, who I hear even when I am not writing their story, there is the meowing of a cat too.
His name is Damien and his story will one day get written as well. (It'll be good, promise. And heart wrenching.)

Now, for the character I talk to most nowadays. Kiran. He is the main pro for my Novel the Embodiment Of Revenge... and we have a strained relationship.
His counter part, Boothe, loves me, but they don't get along very well. And... while my other characters have had their mind turning gut wrenching experiences, they all got over it. They were strong. At the moment, Kiran is not. That is how I developed him. I'm honestly scared he hates me because of the... stuff ... I'm putting him through.

Well I guess I wrote more words than I had ment too. So... pizza?
This was supposed to be a 'ahh I have voices in my head!" Thing but eh.. if you read this far, thanks. If not then you won't hear me say this. Ahem... potatos.
Okay, I'll leave now. Toodles.
