Character Development Secrets ? 7 Steps for the development of ...

Part Four: going to work

If you have read the first three articles in this series, we know that the investment in development time pays a dividend fictional character in the difficult process of writing, you get the quality of your history, and chances accepted. Come on!

So far we have worked with the seven-step process for creating compelling characters, intriguing and credible:

1. Label the Desire Essences of each of your main characters.

2.Fear Essences Label each of your main characters.

3. Get special with his own background.

4. They describe their current behavior.

5. Raise the stakes.

6. Not interfere.

7. Can you play your characters.

Now that the framework for the effective development of the history, character, we try to put this knowledge to work!

Problem

Let's start with a pair of poorly developed characters ? a man and a woman in the romantic drama genre. We will put these two in aBookseller for their first meeting and write, without their development:

Rachel in the library, looking around. He needed a book for a dear friend and when they save the book passed a million times, had never been inside. She sailed a bit "out there, and then pulled some books off the shelf trying to find a suitable gift." Is there anything can I help you? "Said a voice behind her. He approached an attractive young man see in his early twenties. "Lookingfor something special? "He asked." No, "was his answer." You are very nice, "said the man." Thank you, "he said, blushing.

Solution

Now, after these two characters through the process of development in the history of labeling their essences, more specifically, increasing the stakes, this is where we stop meddling and let them really play:

Rachel in the bookstore, what a quick visual scan of the interior. She sailed for a while, try to avoid scanning the shelves and(To hide his desire) other patrons. Coming around a corner caught their reflection in a mirror and looked for a moment. He was like his baggy jeans and sweatshirt look hid her face, so when she dressed the part of the classical literature as a magical door (her desire to live in a different reality). Rachel gently pulled a copy of "Leaves of Grass" from the shelf (her desire to be appreciated for his intellect) and held it gently in his hands.

"A woman who enjoysWhitman is hard to find "a deep voice said from behind her (her desire for connection.) Surprised, Rachel stumbled back into the shelf (his fear of the opposite sex) before trying a hand on his arm constantly felt her . He looked up and saw a large man with a thick crop curly brown hair and rich, dark eyes, she looked with a mixture of concern and amusement.

"I'm sorry if I scared," said the stranger, that heat is only slightly loose his inconvenience. "My mother and I to readWhitman together, "he continued. Rachel was there, in silence and embarrassment." I think that's where I got my love of reading. How about you? "He asked. His eyes were penetrating power (his post is high).

"There is little else I think," murmured (his desire for connection). His eyes never left the ground (to hide his desire is strong).

He nodded. "I'm always so lost in a story that disappears the rest of the world."

Rachel's eyes slowlythe floor, his capture only briefly before through the book in his hand. The nervousness in my stomach danced torn so wild that he was not surprised his body. Even if you are normally mixed away and avoided any exchange, he found his feet in a way that was cemented in, unable from his presence.

"They want to take a walk in the pub (the need for a drink)?" He asked.

He raised his head (his strong desire for connectedness vs.The fear of the opposite sex and the desire to avoid alcohol). "I gotta go now (to win his fear)." He jumped from the supermarket, the book still in hand. He looked back and saw the young man when he runs a little pull money from his wallet, his hand on his chest and then start after her (his need to connect to overcome the fear of rejection) was launched.

In this example, you have feelings, behaviors and history of driving every subtle action and reaction. Every human being is a complex network that must continuebefore the eyes of the reader, so that each side is forced to keep reading to unravel. After all the character development is the key to unlock this kind of writing! Experiment with this process of developing new character yourself and see if you can your characters to life on the page!

Meanwhile, the authors of the attack back in his chair, his finger on the button, and your letter to the stars.
