Are you always writing the same types of characters? Try someone new in your fiction writing!
Try someone new in your fiction writing!
Are you continually writing from points of view of people who are very recognizable to you or with whom you feel very much at home?
If so, it's time to change! Rattle things up a bit in your creative landscape.
Here are some thoughts which may or may not seem outrageous to you:
Write from the point of view of:
a thief
a woman giving birth
a man who is dying
a medieval crusader
a teenager who is being pressured to take drugs
a teenager who is being pressured to have sex before he or she is ready
a wise old dog
a woman condemned to burn at the stake as a witch
a child in the midst of war who finds herself lost without parents.
a interrogator of the enemy during war time
a man or woman who has visions but isn't crazy
these just came to my mind.
Do you have any ideas?
