"A - a memorable character has to play with my emotions. I'm fairly stoic generally, but if a character can make me react (even the smallest of smiles, a giggle, or a tear) the author did a good job. If I yell at you (I did that to a friend who killed off my favorite character in his series), then you REALLY did a great job. [Side note, his best friend hasn't forgiven him for that one either. LOL]"
