Readers have two reactions to the mention of Summer McKoy’s name. They either sigh in annoyance at what they remember her character being like or they laugh at one of the many audacious or pompous things that came out of her mouth without a care in the world who she offended.
Despite that, Summer McKoy is one of my favorite characters I’ve created. Her personality challenged me to find the good in her so I could tap in and tell her story in a realistic and relatable way. Even to this day, when she appears in a cameo in a story, I genuinely love catching up with her. Because Summer is Summer and you can always depend on her being herself… for better or for worse.
