It's funny you mention the choice. I'm one of the rare few writers here who will step into character from time to time. At first, people didn't know what the hell to make of it. Some got used to it, some got scared away, much like how a bad guy wrestler would convince people he's actually bad. So yeah, if I don't feel like being myself, I'll step into entertainment mode, do something creative, just have fun, and watch the reactions roll in.
