    Good luck for NaNoWriMo, Goodnight Seadra Let us know how it goes.

    We got tons of random exercises in creative writing last semester, but one thing that sticks out is this: what does each character want most, and why can't they get it? It's a good aproach for plot development in short stories, not sure how well it'll work with longer stuff.

    Yeah. I think thats real good for also getting to know your characters. I hate trying to write from someone I don't know all to well.
