To start off the exercises
of character development, I found a funny post that may be somewhat relevant. If
you know me well, you know that I have an article, meme, video, etc. from
somewhere on the Internet for literally every situation. If anyone wants to
challenge me, comment below a concept, idea, situation, etc. and I will find
the corresponding funny Internet thing. Because that is what I do in my spare
time :/
So here is the prompt, the
Internet inspiration is below: Try and create a character for yourself. You, of
course, know yourself better than anyone else; you know all your facets and
masks (I-You #jewthought). But I want you to step away from that for a second.
Think about one moment that defines who you are. For example, for me I could
use a moment in second grade when I was writing a story in my notebook. I was
young and imaginative, scribbling in pink pens on my composition note sheets. I
told stories of fairies and ponies and crazy dysfunctional families that were
so unlike my own. Once you have settled on a moment, start to describe yourself:
just what you displayed in that one moment. How would an author create you?
