I tend to rely on out-of-the-blue inspirations (maybe too much, in all honesty), and my most recent revelation was to look through stock photos until I found my main characters. This may sound kind of lame, but I really did not have a precise vision of Tess, James, Emma, and Oscar. I had a good idea of what each character looked like, but seeing the photos really made a big difference for me.
There are quite a few stock photo sites out there, and I went with FotoSearch and 123RF. It was kind of fun search through the pictures, and it was great when I found the right ones.
Is it necessary to see your main characters? Am I doing this backwards?
