Character Flaws - Emotional

Emotional flaws are an integral part of making your character likeable to your readers. Believe me when I say, the more perfect your character is, the more your readers are going to be turned off by him or her and the more likely they will be to drop the book and never read it or another one by you again. The reason is: they won't be able to identify with the character. No one in this world is perfect. If you make a perfect character, your readers are going to feel inferior to that character and hate him/her. They're not going to like the fact that s/he is always right, always wins, always knows everything, always says the right thing, etc.,

Character Flaws - Fatal

We all know by now that character flaws are very important to maintaining an identifiable hero in any story you create. But we don’t just have protagonists to write about in our stories. Our heroes and heroines need an arch nemesis to fight against, the antagonist of the storyline, the bad guy who reaps fiery infernos of vengeance upon the good guy. The bad guys need flaws as well—but not just any flaw; they need flaws that will make them hateable, flaws that are absolutely unforgiveable. These bad guys must have the reader so angry at them that they identify even more with the hero or heroine. These flaws can’t be just an

How to Introduce a Character

The classical Movie Introduction – Sometimes, you get a hero. Not over time, but right at the start – this is your hero. He's confident, he's suave, and he always packs his shaving cream. Somehow he always manages to get that beard just right, despite the fact that you've never seen him trim. Everything about him is admirable, and you just wanna follow him like a little puppy dog because that's how AWESOME he is. …it might work, but you still shouldn't do it. It's one thing for movies, where you can simply follow someone's action across the screens. In books, you want the closeness that only seeing the character fall on their

Choosing a Companion: A Guide

Choosing a Companion Alright, you've got your hero, your villain, your damsel maybe even a style of transformation and a monster too. Wanna know what comes next? No idea, yet! You should have figured out your companion aaaaaaages ago. There's very little that's more important than a good companion. Whether it's to lend support or kick them down, no hero can do it alone. Even if they really wish they could. The Loyal Companion: Most, though not all, companions fall into this overhead. Otherwise, they'd stab them in the back and run the moment they could. (See further down for that.) This is basically the companion that stands by the hero's

Monster Guide

Monster Guide That's right, another guide. I've been meaning to do it, for a while, and dang it all, I'm going to! The Classic Monster - As you've probably learned by now, there is almost always a classic. This one doesn't have to be good or bad, really, they just have to be hungry - for you. Or violent. Or… anything else that will lead them to try to kill your main characters. Like all classics, they tend to be utterly flat, and of little interest - unless you invented the species, in which case they might have an awesome feature or too. You don't need to avoid this one, though! I wouldn't go around giving them major parts, mind you,

10 Tips for Novel Writers

1. Don’t Find Time, Make It. Too many authors think that they will “find” the time to write sometime today or this week or next month. But think about it: when was the last time you said, “Hey, look! I just found a twenty fifth hour in my jacket pocket!” You know how many hours there are in a day, so stop fooling yourself. If you’re going to have time to write, you need to make time to write. Whether you set aside the same hour every day or use those few minutes you have between classes, make sure you’re devoting that time entirely to your writing, not sharing it with your favourite reality tv show.

Strong Characters but a Weak Plot?

----- Original Message ----- ...I have very strong characters, but a very weak plot. While my story is primarily character driven, I feel I feel I put them in a place where there's not much plot, or that the plot itself is uninteresting. How do make my plot stronger? Furthermore, how do I find a balance between plot and characters? Or is it okay that my plot isn't gripping, as long as I have strong, well-developed characters? What should you do when you have Strong Characters but a Weak Plot? First, I think we should clarify what Character-Driven means. Character-Driven does NOT mean: A story that focuses on the characters. Character-Drive

Beating the Block

brought to you by Super Editor Please read this list slowly and carefully, considering not only the individual prompt but ways to bend it. You'll get much more out of it. (Thinking about specific characters and/or listening to your book's theme music while you read may help.) This list is designed mainly to give ideas for characterization-related scenes. If your issue is more along the lines of "I don't know where I'm going," then this may not be as helpful. While you can read this anyway, meditation and logic are usually the things that work best. If this gives you an idea, write it down! It's a long list, so you don't want to risk forget

Getting to Know Your Character

Getting to know your character(The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) As mentioned in the filled-out character sheet, the first best way to get to know your character is to write down everything you can about them in a character sheet. This includes, but is not limited to, their personal history (whether it will appear in the story or not), the names of their family members, their physical looks, their personality, and so on and so forth. The second best way is to write about them. Put them into all sorts of little-bit situations so you know how they’d react to something. For instance, my Character Milan is an in-training scientist.

A Writer's Guide: Believable Characters

I know a lot of you out there are aspiring-writers (I’m one myself!) and sometimes we get so caught up in this “must publish!” attitude that we get lost in our stories along the way. Sometimes there comes a point when we stare at our half-finished novel and say “I’m stuck. “ Usually these moments happen when we don’t know where we’re going next with our story, and usually that’s because somewhere along the line we’ve strayed off the path and we aren’t quite sure how to get back. One of the things that you may find helpful if you’ve never done it before is to take a reall
