Spend a day in your sticky character's shoes, think like them, be them, do what you think they would do. Then their voice will free up more as you write. Maybe not if you're writing a crime "eeek eeek eeek" stabby novel though. I haven't really thought this through. Hmmm. Back to the drawing board.
