Weekly Geeks 2010-18: A Character Comparison

For this week's task, let's take a close look at some of our favorite bookish characters. Specifically, think of a character that you really relate to, a character that you think you could jump right in the story and actually be, a character that you think the author might know you because it comes so close to who you are! List for us the traits of that character that you feel closely resembles yourself. If you feel like there's several characters that fit the bill, list them all! Why not!

On the flip side, you can also share with us a favorite character that is the complete opposite of you. Maybe it's a character that you would never get along with, or one that would drive you crazy if you met them. Maybe it's someone who has completely different values, opinions or personality than you. Again, make a list of these traits that you feel are totally incompatible to yourself.

Finally, you can also tell us about a character that you wish you could be more like. Tell us what traits of this character you'd like to possess and why.

Have fun with this idea! Don't stress. Do all three, or just one. Don't try to think of every character you've ever read about and find the one the fits the assignment the best... just go with whatever comes to mind quickly and run with it. Hopefully you'll find this a fun little exercise.

Share your post with us in the Mr. Linky (if I can make it work) and then don't forget to go visit other geek participants and see if you have any character matches!

best, hope, TIME, and more:
