30 Days Writing Meme -- Question Seventeen

17. Favorite protagonist and why!

Can I reword this one to `favourite protagonist per book`? No? Ah, dammit...

It might be squirming out of answering, but there is no favourite. They're ALL favourite for their own particular story, else why would I be writing them in the first place? Writing characters like Vance from "Afterthought", or Nolan from "Chasing Butterflies", or Dominic from "Human Nature" comes easy because their voices come easy to me, but that doesn't mean I like them more than any of the other main characters in those books. Like I said in one of the earlier questions, there's a difference between favourite character and favourite to write. I adore Pietro, and Gage and Randall, but they certainly aren't the easiest to write.

So yeah, lame-but-true answer = there aren't any.
