None of us really want to kill our characters…Or do we?…(She laughs maniacally, Muhahaha) In reality people die everyday so why not put death in your novel? It is a necessary event to happen for many reasons. Seeing as though I talked about love and intimacy in my last two blog posts, I felt likeContinue reading “Killing Characters”

Intimacy/Sex
Sex and Intimacy in a story/novel can seem like a difficult thing to do. Alright, so I realize talking about it may be a touchy subject at times. Whatever your thoughts are about it, come on, keep reading. Maybe if you read about it, then it will be easier to write about it. Some novelsContinue reading “Intimacy/Sex”
Writing Love
Love…Oh the “L” word to top all “L” words. You don’t have to write a romance novel to write about love. It is included in almost every story in many different ways. Experiencing love through life can be so impact-full it can change someone forever. It can be described as love for a significant other,Continue reading “Writing Love”
Villain Troubles
Villains, antagonists, bad guys (or girls), whatever you want to call them they will have an essential part in your story. How devious or vicious they are depends on how you write them of course. The tricky part is most of us only experience certain kinds of villains throughout our lives. So the ones weContinue reading “Villain Troubles”
Creating a Personality
A personality is one complicated endeavor but every writer who creates people has to create each one best suited for the story. In my last post I wrote about creating a person (character)…this is the continuation. When you think of the word personality, what do you think of? Maybe what you think of first isContinue reading “Creating a Personality”

However the question remains for many, how do you create a person on paper? What is the best way to describe theirContinue reading “Creating A Person”
Picking a Title
Naming your baby…Or in other words finding a title that suits your book. Obviously it has a lot to do with the genre that you would classify your current novel in as well as the content in said novel. Not all titles are created equally, some will actually deter people from reading them. The titlesContinue reading “Picking a Title”
Editing
Let’s get into the Nitty Gritty of editing…That’s right the one thing that we as writers all hate. If you find yourself loving the editing process as a writer than you are unique and I applaud you for that. On, the other hand I also applaud all of the other writers out there who stillContinue reading “Editing”
Inspiration
One could say that inspiration is every where you look. (I talked about inspiration briefly in my blog post called ‘Paper’. If interested in more, please go back to the Home page and you will find a link to that post from there.) So if inspiration is every where than why does ‘writers block’ exist?Continue reading “Inspiration”
Timing
Alright so Timing is everything right? In life especially, so why not in your writing? I mean if we live by a schedule than in some way your characters would to. Even though they are in a fictional world in some cases, they have some sort of routine to their day. Personally I have discoveredContinue reading “Timing”
