Best Answer

Just as you have your favorite characters in his or her book, the author has favorites that he or she like writing about. So many times, I have read in an author interview how the author did not plan to include a certain character in their book, "but somehow they wormed their way in."

Good characters are living things - even if they only live in the imagination. They might show up anywhere.

Joseph Conrad did this with Marlow in a few of his stories.
