The summer is coming to an end and what a year it’s been! I hope you’ve been able to enjoy some outdoor weather while you are social distancing. If you’ve not been able to escape, I hope you’ve been reading! Otherwise, we are all in a bit of limbo right now. A lot of indecision regarding school, work and direction in general. I’ve been writing and Misty Revenge is closer to being published. It’s very exciting and I can’t wait! In the meantime, we need to move forward and continue to work toward our goals in a safe way!! Positive Intention!!
Writer’s Room #4 – How do you choose your characters? How do you choose their names? There are many name generator’s or you can use an old fashioned phone book and look up names. You want your character’s name to truly represent your character’s personality. Also, you need to make sure the name is correct for the time period you are writing in. Names that were popular in 1910 are not necessarily popular today. You can search for the most popular name in a specific year as well. Try not to choose names that are similar so you don’t confuse your reader.
