As the title says, this is a collection of information that you can take into consideration when you are trying to develop an in-depth background for your characters. This help sheet is probably more helpful for contemporary characters, rather than characters with supernatural abilities. But you will still be able to find useful details to take into consideration as you try to create a complete identity for your characters - no matter the genre of your story.

I'm not trying to attack and offend people in any way here. So let's just get that out of the way. If you're like me, you probably read stories for... well... the story. But a problem arises and ruins the experience when you run into titles like 'ABUSED AND NEGLECTED READER' or '(Insert female character here) X BROTHER READER' or many things alike. Those were just two things on the top of my head when writing this description, but the list goes on. So if you want to grab a drink and vent about annoying writing tropes, this is the place.

YOU WANNA FIGHT? FIGHT ME! Or we could have a cup of tea and a biscuit if you prefer. Ever found it hard to get to grips with how to put together a fight scene, or a battle sequence? This guide runs you through the basics, talks about different styles of fighting and weaponry, how to put together fight scenes, plan out battles, and talks about how you include Fantasy or Magical elements as well as the various Dos and Don'ts of writing Action. Now with added flamingos... are we sure that it's spelled like that? There's an aardvark with an Uzi somewhere too.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Part 2 of 100 Things. For those of you who've missed Part 1 (mainly dealing with the creation and sustaining of tension), you can find it here: http://www.wattpad.com/story/17586435-100-things-you-should-know-about-writing-part-1 Part 2 will mainly be about the craft of writing, or as I like to think about it, How to Be a Writer. I will however, veer off on tangents to answer questions or just because I want to, but I hope to be informative every time I do so. Cover image Copyright Misha Gerrick 2015 All Rights Reserved
