I have just uploaded a competition entry I have submitted this year; however I cannot for the life of me decide what exactly my main character is. The only thing I do know is she is NOT a vampire aha. Caon someone read it and let me know what they think? Thank you :)

I don't know if its necessary I know its just I've never created a character that I couldn't explain :/ but I suppose I could leave it down to interpretation as each reader might see it different

Do you have to decide what your character is? Why not leave it a mystery?

Then again - is your character what peoplle - or she herself - think she is - and that's two different issues - at least...
