Writing isn't about creating perfect characters. There's no such thing. It's about creating characters that are real; flawed
yet beautiful, in that they know they need another person. Needing someone else doesn't make them weak; if they believed all they needed was them self, they would be.

Writers breath life into simple words and create beings
flaws and all. — Cassandra Giovanni
