Not gonna lie. Without sharing my Sorroscope, I have to say it’s incredibly accurate. (Sigh)

#AugCharWork A lot of my characters align with the “reluctant hero” archetype in some way. This includes Milo who is sooo not a hero. But he has to step up against another suitor who has villainous qualities. And Connie, she’s a bit of a hero in a way that no one would have imagined.

August Character Workshop Day 2. #AugCharWork Archetypes I would suggest to you that a good character needs to align, at least somewhat to an archetype. Archetypes tell readers how to relate to the character.

Our house is in desperate need of a clean out, so I pull an old book off the shelf thinking “this is one I can probably pass on”—The Heath Introduction to Literature. I open it up and land on a short story—John Updike’s A&P, and now I can’t give this book away. #BookSky📚💙

#AugCharWork Milo & Connie are my MCs. Milo is a glass half empty guy. Connie is his bright side. His struggle is to keep her happy so he doesn’t lose her. Connie tries to please but you can’t please everyone. She needs to understand the role that stress plays in her life & how to roll with it.

August Character Workshop Day 1. #AugCharWork What Do They Need to Do? What do you, the author, need the character to do to make the story work? If this is your romantic lead, they need to fall in love. If this is your mystery detective, they need to detect.

#JulyInterviewFic Alec—Perfect Prophet “We are each at the center of our own world. What we see, how we respond is specific to us, you know? It’s selfish…we all do it—dismiss the reasons for other people’s behavior—because we only react to how it affects us. Remember that. And be kinder.”

#JulyInterviewFic. (Answer in character as your OC) Question 31. Okay. Last question. If you could magically put a message in front of everyone worldwide, what would that message be?

Tomas is one of my characters who starts out as a clueless rogue and gradually grows into the right kind of hero. #WIPSnips.
