Explore your personal taboos and break them ALL. No, I am not endorsing immoral behaviour. I believe it is important to understand the boundary between liberty and license. A writer must have the liberty to embrace the darkness and empathize with even the most nefarious characters. The Nolan Brother's Joker in The Dark Knight and Shakespeare's Iago in Othello are testament to this. While it's never about admiration for their deeds, the authors' fondness for these characters is evident. Explore topics deemed unspeakable in polite society. Assume your audience's sophistication and be prepared for the criticism of those who fail to grasp your intent. Being a writer means embracing the unvarnished truth and surrendering to it in your storytelling. @anniemack.mgs #BreakingTaboos #EmbracingDarkness #WriterFreedom #ExploreBoundaries #DelveIntoDarkness #ChallengingNorms #TruthInWriting #WritingJourney #CreativeLiberty #ArtisticExpression #TabooTopics #EmbraceCriticism #AuthenticStorytelling #SurrenderToTruth #WritingCommunity #writer #writingtips #OMERAPress

Here's a more concise version: The Secret to Dialogue We've all read dialogue that feels staged—characters simply reciting lines. The secret? Frame it around the situation, not just the words. You will disagree with me: There is a secret to dialogue. It doesn't just move the plot forward. It also reveals character depths through subtext It's about what's said and what's unsaid between characters. This is how you create the tensions simmering beneath conversations. Don't state things directly Let the situation reveal character goals And character motivations through implication. Dialogue is one character wanting something Another character wanting something different But neither is telling the other upfront. #WritingTips #WritersLife #DialogueCraft #ShowDontTell #StoryTeller #Writer Write the power dynamics, histories, and desperation colouring each syllable. Infuse your narrative world into every line of dialogue.

I enjoy exploring words that we take for granted. Sometimes the journey is elaborate, other times it's plain and simple. But in all cases, there's more to the story than the flippant usage of today. #writer #wordoftheday #history #learning #samanthaseidelwrites #srsinkfeather

Have you ever been triggered by a person, place, or thing? Of course, you have, we all have. We will get triggered. Sometimes we will get triggered and not even know we are triggered. That’s the hardest because you have no clue why you are reacting the way you are. To combat this, I’ve created my twenty-four-hour rule. But first, let’s look at what triggers are.

One of my favourite quotes from Doc Anand's life story, which I'm working on. “As you help people, you grow with them. That is one of the great things about being a doctor. You grow as a human being.” The photo is of Doc on his recent, first pot-holing expedition. Think I'll work this into a blog post. #writer #lifestory #memoirs https://lnkd.in/dn6E_BuE   ‘Writing – Life - People’

Good morning, fam.😌 Hope you had a restful night. Words possess the power to shape and destroy you, contingent upon how you allow them to operate in your life. They can either work in your favor or against you, depending on what you choose to release.
