Writing A Diverse Cast of Characters: Points and Tips For Authors
Desiderius Price replied to Tcr's topic in Writers' Corner
For significant characters, I try to make sure they have hobbies, phobias, and perhaps an allergy or two. (Like names, I’ve got a random picker app that makes suggestions.) Culture/ethnicity is simply one piece to the character, not the full picture. -

Any rumours of Breitbart acquiring AFF are greatly exaggerated. Hope everybody enjoys their April Fool’s day.

You can toy with the reader further by adding in some red herrings, misleading the characters and readers to the wrong conclusion, at least for a while. As to the level of hints, you can pepper both subtle and more obvious, as desired, as some readers will appreciate them, others, well, they’d gloss over them and be in for a bigger surprise.

The more complete story. On the way home this evening, heard a “whump” “whump” sound, growing, to the point that I couldn’t ignore it. Tire blown out, tread separated. So, after putting on the “doughnut” so-called spare, drove it to the shop and walked home from there.

Rewatching Back to the Future. Why does Biff (the tycoon) remind me of a certain president? Does that also mean we’re living in Back to the Future IV?

Please tell me you can go back in time and fix this.
