born to be an abstract concept, forced to be a percievable entity
I'm 23 years old and I have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest of my life……… and I'm fine with that
Me *unprovoked at any time of the day*: YOU KILLED MY SHEEP ??? MY FAVOURITE SHEEP! WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO DEAL A PAIN SO DEEP? DON'T YOU KNOW THE PAIN YOU SOW IS THE PAIN YOU REAP????
i think love is when i put myself to bed even when im tired, and i carry myself up the stairs even though my knees ache. and i think love is when i buy myself a coffee when im broke, and i know that ill get myself back later. and i think love is letting myself love someone, even though i am so scared. love is a heavy thing that carries you as much as you carry it.
nothing to add to this you said it all..
When I first got into writing, I found myself struggling with all these character profile sheets that asked for descriptors like favorite color or favorite tattoos. Don't get me wrong - the fun in creating these profiles is bringing them to life in your author-ly mind. But when I finally hit the pages, I realized that my characters' interiority is what made each of them so memorable to me and my readers. Here are some questions I think could be worth asking of your characters before you try writing a chapter with them:
Who do they go to when they hit a low point? If not who, then where?
How do they react when someone compliments them?
They have to do some spring cleaning. What are they tossing?
What’s their go-to spot for a date (romantic or platonic)?
How do they react when they’re slighted? Do they totally rage out, plot something for later, or move past their feelings?
Who will they cry in front of?
What do they consider to be some of the cruelest injustices in the world?
What’s the first thing they’ve ever owned?
How do they relax during their down time?
What personal misconception gets in the way of them achieving what they want?
Do they love anyone?
Do they hate anyone?
How do they comfort others?
What brings them comfort?
Do new skills come easily to them, or does it take perseverance?
Who and/or what cause are they willing to blow their lives up for?
What rumors are attached to them?
What soothes them?
Do they like to share?
What is their calling?
Hope this helps!
