If anyone's curious about specific characters I've written, by all means, ask about them. :) I'll try to answer as best as I can :)

- Well... I was inspired by the show "Jake 2.0" where a tech guy gets infected by nanites, and gets to do all these cool abilities and eventually becomes a secret agent. Initially I was being a bit self-indulgent in fantasy and wanted to make a character like Grant -- in his sixties, a cigar smoker, and a bearish type of man. And then things went from there :)
b. One of their best traits.
- Hmm. A big heart.
c. One of their worst traits.
- Possibly being a bit TOO gratifying in his whims -- particularly about sex.
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.
- The first story was difficult -- pretty much because I was working through what kind of character Grant was supposed to be. Initially he started out cynical, and dare I say it, a tad depressed. It's much easier to write for Grant in the second story because he's almost alive in my head at this point and it's easier to write him.
e. The moment where I feel that I truly captured the character.
- Ehh. hard to say, really. There are many moments I like about this character lol.
f. My plans to write the character in the near future.
- That's classified ;) Truthfully, I'm not really sure. I know by the end of Grizzly Science: Unlikely Friends, the stories revolving around Grant's life probably will be finished. But that's not set in concrete :) I did want to do other stories in the Grizzly Science universe that didn't have any links to Grant, Brent, or Vince, but possibly dealt with other people who received the treatment.
