BECOME THE STORY

“I write to give myself strength. I write to be the characters that I am not. I write to explore all the things I'm afraid of. ” —Joss Whedon

Let your writing force you to face your fears, your apprehensions, and issues that bother you.

Learn about yourself as you write.

The characters can (and should) be there to make mistakes, stupid statements, have controversial opinions, and drive you crazy.

Let them. Work things out through them.

You’ll become a better person (and writer) as you do.

What is your greatest fear?

Write about it, or at least have one of your characters face it head-on.
​
Stretch yourself through your writing.
