Getting Into the Head of Your Characters
Book Outlining, Characters, My Projects, Writing Fiction July 16th, 2008
While outlining Three Weeks, I’m doing what I can to get into the mind of my main character (Jillian). As the book involves her looking back over failed relationships, I’ve been spending a lot of time lately doing the same - trying to bring up old emotions for example. I posted about my efforts to “become” my character a bit on my newest blog - JennSays.com. Give that post a read, and then I’d love to hear about how other writers get into the head of their characters during the writing and outlining phases of fiction.
Boyfriends, Booze, and Broken Hearts
