Have you ever tried to write a story in which there is only one character, all by herself? I've been working on such a story and am finding it more difficult than I have ever imagined to give the story any grip. Stories are interesting because of some central conflict, and it's bugger-all difficult to have a conflict with only one character (unless she's schizo or something, and this one isn't).
Has anyone out there ever written or read a story in which there is only one character at all? Was the story a success? I'm curious to know if I'm the only one who has trouble doing this.
