Martha isn't particularly happy at the start of MarthaWIP, but she figures it's because she's a bad daughter and was a bad wife (now she's divorced) and probably she's not a great friend either, so like. what change lol

I finished one character bio which equated to six pages of writing. Plus the start of the next one.

After this week, I need a break, so no plans to do more than rest this weekend.

#WeeknightWriters

Ooooooh you all want to read Once More With Love once I get it out ooooooh

#WeeknightWriters

Alice is a simple teenager who loves to read and is very awkward, and she wants to go back to the simple days of the past before she was forced to live under an imperial regime

#WeeknightWriters

This is kind of specific but I do struggle implementing certain character quirks because during the writing process I often forget about certain things >.>

#WeeknightWriters

Figuring out the various relationships and how certain characters interact with each other : D

#Weeknightwriters

Probably figuring out the ending and beginning and seeing how one fits with the other in a satisfying manner

#WeeknightWriters

I usually come up with characters first and build the stories and worlds around them by thinking of what would be the best option to use to explore their character arcs

#WeeknightWriters#We

The three are marginally content, the village is an Okay home with some problems, but they all aspire to join The Outriders, an organization that looks after the planetfall roots and branches of the Worldstree.

Honestly, they’re both miserable. As repeatedly noted, Jake has been through an absolutely miserable time and his desperation is a big piece of the narrative. Blair is unhappy with her life and racing towards rock bottom, as Jake is just starting to climb up.

Caly feels nothing but contempt for her life.

Her fathers are dead. The Hostage Agreement is corrupt (though no one acknowledges it). And she has equal hatred for the villains and heroes responsible.

She's ready to break everything.

This used to be a challenge. I started naming characters after the next person to walk in the room. And then I started asking my friends on social media.

I have SO MUCH FUN asking my friends to name sh*t now. I keep lists.

They helped me populate my entire small town in Vermont!

#WeeknightWriters My favorite thing is discovering little quirks. Zoe has a fidget toy. Ava chews her pens. Caleb sings silly ditties. I love those tiny pieces. They make a great whole!
