eden anderson replied to the topic Help! My POV character hates the world! in the forum Characters 4 years, 6 months ago
@chalice SAMEEEE. My POV character is an angry, bitter jerk who thinks only of himself and how to bring about the downfall of those who hurt him. He’s so obsessed about advancing his own agenda, he doesn’t really care who gets trampled along the way. (Well, except for like…five people.)
So, yeah, I sympathize with you. 😄
Everybody has been…[Read more]

@chalice YAY! You’re in this group too! *high-fives* 😀

Aw, yeah, sister! *insert secret handshake* 😉

Um… sort of? I have an idea in my head for a few contemporary stories. But only really one that I actually have enough of an idea to start outlining or drafting. I’ll have to mosey over to the thread you started and tell you about it. 🙂

Yeah, same. 😄 I have all kinds of ideas for contemporary stories but I’m not really working on any right now.
Yes, please do! I’d LOVE to hear all about it! 😊

Everyone else has said their piece and they’re really good, with excellent, solid, detailed advice – I’m not sure how much I can add, but after reading your question I felt compelled to draw up an answer, as I have an MC who is pretty much in the same position. Since everyone else has already supplied high quality general advice, mayhap…[Read more]

Thanks for tagging me! I have only one suggestion, and this is something that I think would work for myself, personally, so it might not work for anyone else, BUT! Give her some aspect of yourself that you like in yourself. So for example, I like the fact that I’m very hard to insult. I just don’t take offense to much. So I might give my…[Read more]

Oooh ooh ooh I am so here for this!
(Okay so, I’m slightly biased because I love broken characters, and make them all messed-up and moody and I’m done for.)
My POV character in my WIP, Harley, isn’t exactly bitter—well, maybe—but he’s seething angry with the world. He hates himself, he hates his best friend, he hates his battle budd…[Read more]

Elisha Starquill replied to the topic Help! My POV character hates the world! in the forum Characters 4 years, 6 months ago
@chalice – Hmm, the first thing that comes to my mind is why. Why does your character hate the world? Why does she harbor so much anger? People aren’t just born angry at everyone, so usually it’s because of some terrible thing that happened to her in the past (*coughs* tragic backstory.) And as for making her more likable, what if you made that…[Read more]

Arindown (Gracie) replied to the topic Help! My POV character hates the world! in the forum Characters 4 years, 6 months ago
This is a hard question. I’m not really sure, but my suggestions are to make yourself feel sorry for her by showing the low she has reached and then having the joy of, in a sense, saving her. And to make her have some good qualities that you admire. For example, she can be a total wreck, but be courageous or headstrong in a good way…[Read more]

Hello, all! It seems like ages since I’ve last been on here, and I’m sure I’m missing some tags for my former beta group…if so, I’m sorry. ::P I’m tagging what I hope is all of you who currently have access to my book even if you have not read it yet, and probably some of you who don’t.

@chalice Thank you for pointing that out! Yeah, when I was writing it I wasn’t really sure about that either at first, so I guess I didn’t establish it well.
Thanks for reading it! i’m glad you enjoyed.
