Jumpstart #2: Character Fears (part 1)

Posted by on September 17, 2012

INTRO: Every Monday is Jumpstart Monday so I will be trying out things to help me get into my writing for the week; hopefully these will help you too.

JumpStart #2: Using a character from a w-i-p (work-in-progress) or one you come up with on the spot, write down one thing your character is afraid of (yes, I’m ending that in a preposition. Deal with it!).

Next, write a short scene where another character unknowingly confronts your character with this fear. How does your character react/respond? Why?

Tomorrow I’ll share my own results and next week we’ll do a second, related exercise.

Share Your Thoughts or Questions!

Name, email address, and website are optional but giving a first name or a fun name is nice!
