she's a city girl but summers at the lake #awesomecharacters #writesky #writingcommunity #writingprompts
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters
How does your character feel about nature?
Do they like the outdoors? Have good survival skills?
Or do they prefer the comforts and amenities of a city?
Some combination of both?

Today's random #Lovember #WritingPrompt for the #WriteSky #WritingCommunity:
What's something (or someone!?) your character loves that no one expects of them, and/or was a surprise to you or your readers?

Random arguments the characters are having #writingq
Do you think in scenes, images, dialogue, or something else entirely when you write? Definitely images for me. It’s like watching a movie in my head #writingq #WritingCommunity

Here's an appearance one that I don't think we've talked about yet: What does your character's hair look like?
Do they have hair? Long or short? What color? How do they usually wear it? Is it important to them?

yeah they're not over each other that's what the book's about #writesky #writingcommunity #lovember #writingprompt
Today's random #Lovember #WritingPrompt for the #WriteSky #WritingCommunity:
Would your character(s) still fall for their first love(s)?
If it doesn't make sense to answer for romantic love, you can talk about some other sort of "first love".

good thing she tells us on page 1!
"Back then, I was enamored by the smell of pine trees, lake water, and cigarettes in a dive bar parking lot. Summers were like a warm pitcher of beer, a crisp can of Pepsi, and tobacco-tainted kisses."

Finished reading my book again and it’s in much better shape than the last time I read it. Hopefully one of the agents who has it right now feels as strongly about it as I do #amquerying
