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”

Creating A Person

Characters….Alright so we all know how a person is created in real life, of course (in some cases even before we wanted to know, thanks to our sex-ed classes in high school lol). 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”

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”

Seeing the Unseen

*****STAY TUNED TILL THE END FOR ANOTHER WRITING PROMPT***** Seeing the usually unseen is a writers sixth sense. When we enter a room we notice things that others may not. Think Sherlock Holmes; we see the movements, the ink on someones hands, the sideways looks, the nervous gesture, the item out of place, or evenContinue reading “Seeing the Unseen”

*****STAY TUNED TILL THE END FOR A WRITING PROMPT***** Writing what a fun word. What does it mean to write but to express your opinions, tell a story and many other wonderful things. It means that you are sharing a part of yourself, or just writing a simple grocery list LOL. Whatever the case myContinue reading “Writing”

ALSO FOR A LINK TO MY FACEBOOK PAGE, GROUP, AND A SUBSCRIBE LINK (Just enter your email) TO GET AN UPDATE EVERY TIME I POST A NEW BLOG ARTICLE****** A Name…Everyone has a name right? So why shouldn’tContinue reading “A Name”

Making it Real

****Stay Tuned till the end of this post for a writing prompt to spark that creativity!**** Making it real. Hmm…How do you make your stories seem realistic? Well what I mean by that is to add qualities that a reader can relate to. One way to do that is to include holidays and birthdays, amongContinue reading “Making it Real”

Paper

Paper…A very simple title, very simple object, also very useful, even though it can be taken for granted. As writers, paper is one of the most important tools we use (Yes there’s our laptops as well but lets not get too technical lol). We use paper to write notes, story ideas, edit, and then finallyContinue reading “Paper”
