Section 4: Convincing Your Characters That They Are Alive

Think about what inspires you. How could you use that inspiration to come up with an idea for a narrative? Who would be the leading, main character in your narrative?

When we write NARRATIVES, we include CHARACTERS. A rich, strong narrative has a strong, developed main character.

So in Section 4 of Spilling Ink, it encourages you to pretend that your main character is sitting across from you. Get to know your character by asking them some questions. Interview them!  You are imagining what it is like to be them!

Response of the Week: Interview your character!
