Ali House, and seven other authors, discuss: What do we owe the people we base characters on? | The Write Project

It's in the nature of creative efforts that we are inspired by the world around it: the arts, world events, and... people! Friends, family, even perfect strangers form the inspiration of the characters that wind up in our books. But what do we owe those people, once they're there? Acknowledgement?  Respect? Money?

Featuring, from Engen Books:
Jennifer Shelby, author of Plague of the Dreamless
Brad Dunne, author of The Merchant's Mansion
Ali House, author of The Hunters and the Hunted
Erin Vance, author of Exposure
Tanith Frost, contributor to Terror Nova: Writers Retreat
