50 Tips for Writing.

36. Readers dislike/hate one of your characters

Sometimes, your readers will dislike/hate one of your characters. That's not necessarily a bad thing and you shouldn't cry over it. Whether your readers like the character or not is irrelevant, as long as they can RELATE to his/her emotions, thoughts on a situation and such and as long as your readers like the story itself in general, stop trying to please everyone else and just write to please your own soul. In life, we all have people we don't get along with or don't particularly like for absolutely any reason except our gut feeling telling us something isn't quite right about that person. If your characters are believable enough for people to feel ANY emotion negative or positive towards them, then pat yourself on the back, you officially created yourself a 3D character. Be proud.
