The rest of my January WritingTipWed on my Twitter! Every Wednesday I post a writing tip! If you want to see these weekly, follow me @/EmilyLaJaunie.～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～✦～#WritingTipWed 27 - Your words speak to your values. You have to make it clear what you condemn, and what you uphold. You have to condemn characters’ bad values in the story or it can seem that you are excusing/encouraging those values.Things to condemn include but are not limited to:RacismSexismHomophobiaTransphobiaExclusivism in the LGBTQIA+/Queer communityAbleism (physical disabilities and mental disorders)Abuse (physical, psychological, and financial)Not asking for consent/ignoring boundaries #WritingTipWed 28 - Listen to your characters. If it feels like you’re making them say or do things they wouldn’t say or do, stop and think it over. You may be writing them how you think they should be (norms/tropes), not how they need to be. -- source link
