Publisher's Synopsis
Is your story suffering from prosaic protagonists and apathetic antagonists? You need some writing prompts to put the spark into those characters. 501 Writing Prompts to Help Bring Your Characters to Life, with Better Results than Dr. Frankenstein (Guaranteed) is bound, literally and figuratively, to give your characters meaningful inner (and outer) lives. 501 Writing Prompts to Help Bring Your Characters to Life's holistic approach to character development will inspire you through 501 (or more!) prompts, including 100 new visual prompts, many of which are in color. With ideas for your character's job (or lack thereof), idiosyncrasies, personal possessions, and appearance, you will find a new way of thinking about them. Whether you feel stuck fleshing out a character, totally blocked, or just want a new way of thinking about characters, the evocative prompts in this book are designed to let you into a character's world the way stories do: With evocative details that show you who they might be. If you never found the rigorous, outline-based "plotter" approach to writing useful, then this book is for you. Even if you did find it useful, this book is for you. This is especially true if someone has given you a copy. *Guarantee is rhetorical
