WIP Challenge Check-in -- Day 31 (Wednesday)

[linaewen]

Today is Wednesday, and the last day of August -- how's it going for you today?

Were you/are you/will you be:

• writing (want to share a word count?)
• planning (brainstorming, researching, outlining)
• editing
• posting
• taking a break
• reading someone else's writing
• dealing with non-writing things on your To Do List

Discussion for the day:  Let's continue talking about our original characters.  Once you figure out their names, what else is involved in coming come up with a good OC?  Do you create a back story for them before they appear on paper?  Does their history get researched after they appear and you realize they are going to be important?  Or do they develop as they please and you hope they will tell you how it's going to go from one chapter to the next?
