4/28 WIP Tip

WIP TipI’ve been meaning to start a new type of post here at the WIP blog for some time and I think today’s the day :)

Each weekday, I’ll (try my best…no guarantees, no money back!) post one single writing tip. I’m hoping you like a wild grab-bag and range of tips. Everything from creativity to publishing to editors & agents, social media, the writing business and marketing…anything is fair game.

Today I’m still thinking of Bea Arthur’s passing and how sad the world will be without her. Here’s a creative WIP Tip for today:

Choose the most serious character in your WIP and write a scene where they tell or play a joke on another character in your story. Show your character’s internal sense of humor through their delivery.

I would absolutely LOVE to have you post examples of your results here if you like, but I know we’re all protective of our babies (words). You can bet I’ll give feedback…so give it a shot! Good writing takes time, so post whenever you finish…tomorrow, next week, next month…

Check back tomorrow for your next WIP tip to help your writing!
