Character Creation and Character Development / Planning Characters / Self-Education / Discussion
The first step to my 2022 writing goal, is to learn about creating and planning good characters for my stories. While I was ill, I spent a lot of time watching videos, searching the internet, listening to audio books, and watching AuthorTubers! This is a collection of information that I have collected over the years, which I plan to put into action.
What can you share with others about Character Creation, planning and development?

Writing Break / Vacation for Mental Health / Refreshing my Motivation
Life can at times become complicated. It can feel overwhelming, especially when you are overloaded. Retracing your past, going for a long drive, and spending time with family can be extremely rewarding.
Take a road trip with me from Manitoba through Ontario, as I visited family I hadn't seen in 3 years and saw my hometown again. It even spiked creativity for NaNoWriMo.
