I'm interested in the whole. Although I'll also admit some of #3 I might just wind up quietly tabbing past.
Oh, and fair warning: I'm writing again, and might be doing fiction soon. As I like to tell people, everything I read winds up in The Swamp Where Plots Are Born. If there are parts of your life you don't want to see as part of a fictional character I write, you might want to keep me out of that filter.
Ah, immortalized in print. Could be worse. All I ask is that my character has six-pack abs, buns of steel, and can breathe through his ears. Oh and that you tell me which one I am if I'm too dense to figure it out. 8-)
You're down for one enchilada, but will cheerfully give you the mild version if you decide it's too spicy. (Gods, I'm getting mileage out of this analogy...)
Oh, and of course, make me such that no one resembling a boss, etc. can figure out it's me. (Yeah, like the six-pack is gonna give me away... But you know what I mean.)
Actually, I've never deliberately written someone into a character. I have, however, realized after writing a story, that a character's personality was made up from bits and pieces of several folks I knew.

I've done filters like this, and found that most people want to read everything. So just put me where you're most comfortable.
