Working on a short story and getting to know the characters.

I've been trying to work on a short story between working and family things. I have the plot done, I'm just filling in the detail and I'm learning about my characters. I've got the basics down for them as well, but now I must get to know my characters in detail. I find when I do that that the story takes on a whole new meaning and it begins to take me on a whole new journey, because my characters do things, say things and think things based on their history and the things they have experienced.

This is one of the reasons I love writing fiction. There are no boundaries.
