Hey everyone,
I haven't posted in a long time due to being busy with school work and such, but here's the latest update.
I am working on several stories yet again and tempted to pick up writing one of my novels yet again. I have been finding my characterization anymore is getting weaker due to the fact I'm trying to focus on the plot too much. So, I have been going back in some of my stories and bring some of the characterization forward, making it not just a plot story.
So, into the writer's tip...
Remember to ensure your characters are well rounded. If your character has reservations about killing someone and is forced to shoot someone, don't just fire the gun. Get into your character's head and let the gun shake in his hands a little bit. Each character you create should have a character sheet drawn up on them, telling you everything about how they look and what they do. This will especially help when you go to write the story and the issue comes up. I'd suggest freewriting about one character during a writing session; you may be surprised with what you come up with.
RANDOM SENTENCE OF THE WEEK
The market finally came to a close and Martin stood outside, sad to see the doors closed.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
I write like I'm a detective. Sometimes my characters don't tell me everything I should know to write their life's story, but they sure do drop a lot of clues for me to write about.
