What makes us human?
How can a character in a novel become a human being?
These are questions I've been asking myself for some time now because I am writing about a character(s) becoming human.
In the case of three characters in particular I made them human by having them go to the bank in Paris and opening a bank account in their names. In the case of Gregg Gregory (who was human to begin with and who became a character in I WILL STAND ALONE, I made him human by giving him a passport.
But is that enough?
What makes me, or you, human and if I make myself or you a character in a novel does that change anything?

I am considering making the Gregg Gregory novels a separate series since he's not a character in these books and he marries Marilyn in the second novel. They can both become characters in the first of the Women In Love novels.
