Stumbling around the internets I came across this marvelous illustrated piece on the struggles authors sometimes have getting characters to behave:
Author, Author with A Tiger and Free Beer
I have a character or two like this - opinionated and determined to run the story. Now, when they take it interesting places, it's wonderful to just follow along. When they decide they're on holiday or that it's time to take a nap (yes, dragon o' mine, I'm looking at you), well ... not so good.
Do you have any characters like that?
