Sorry about the spelling mistake. I meant 'does' not 'dows'. Silly me! Reply #1. May 15 15, 1:06 AM |

Try and think of it as a role playing game. Try and become the character and write what they would do in any given situation. Or maybe model some of their characteristics off people you know or have heard of. Reply #3. May 15 15, 11:54 AM |

Give them a background. No one is plopped down at the age of 20, to begin their life. Childhood, teen years, early adulthood... all have an impact on who we become. Your characters should have a 'back story'. You don't need to give an entire biography, but a reference to a friend, or past incident (good or bad), gives some depth. Reply #4. May 15 15, 12:19 PM |

I need one more thing for my new story: a short song, something like a slow ballad that a mother might sing to a newborn baby. Reply #8. May 19 15, 12:33 AM |

The sea is your home You are never alone As long as you're here with me. Feel its gentle carress as it sends you a-floating To the beach where you'll dance for me. Then return quickly home So the humans won't know Of our dance of the full moon bright And returning back home Feel the spray on your cheek As the water it rocks you to sleep. The sea is your home You're never alone As long as you're here with me. Reply #9. Jun 07 15, 8:29 AM |

One thing some authors do is to observe characters around them in real life, either people they know or from experience, and take aspects of those to create fictional characters. Reply #11. Dec 04 16, 4:02 PM |
