- Do not contradict the humanity of the character you have created, because your readers will not forgive you.
- We've talked quite a bit about making choices as a writer that make for a consistent characterization. You must intuitively and consciously work towards making a character act within the disposition and facts you've given prior.
- A father who loves his son and is professed to do so for ever will not be justified into torturing him later on in the story.
Mannered Writing
- A writer who cares more about the aesthetics than her or his characters and plots is walking a fine line between genius and egocentricity, balancing on the later.
- Try to work on parts of a story when you find that they fit a repetitive act for you as the writer--when the act itself draws attention away from the story itself.
