Watching this film Bird by Bird about this writer named Annie, showed us how she takes her life and writing as free flowing but also have the opposite side of having road blocks with hard to swallow situations .It is rather interesting how she expresses her writing in a such real raw vibe that people can make a connection from her writing. They way she handles herself in real life transfers onto how she approaches her writing, which to me I find it a rare quality in a creative person in this type of area. Why I find it is rare is because usually a writer has a format to go about to write a short story or any other format there is rules to go by but she however does not apply that in fact she does the complete opposite. How she goes towards writing is by emotion and does not sweat the fact whatever idea she trying to jot down on paper she is not worrying about having the idea to be perfect in the minutes she is taking to get her idea on paper.

They quote John Truby in saying that “the single biggest mistake writers can make when creating the characters is that they think of the hero and all other characters as separate individuals” (73). While writing for film can be different from writing for theatre, this issue still needs to be addressed. The audience will not interest themselves with the journey of the character if the other characters are not also concerned with what has influenced this

Not only do the roles of the characters compel a reader, they also illustrate the

A writer’s job is to create a world that unfolds before the reader’s eyes. We want to hear people speak and see what they do, so that we may intuit what causes their behavior and where it might lead. With the well-tuned interplay of dialogue and narration, you can create scenes that sizzle with romance, suspense, excitement, or joy, engaging the reader in your characters’ plight.

The characters exchange sharp and challenging dialogue, which helps create interpersonal conflict. The dialogue is another solid feature. Conversations reveal information about plot and character. Moreover, the voices sound compelling and

“You might not write well every day, but you can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page” (Jodi Picoult, N.D.). Quote, Question and Connection all bring the writer to think deeper into the subject their writing about, one must read the content but from the content they must derive a thought, an opinion, and a response from what they read and all must be composed on paper. The paper is the piece that blends all together into what the papers about, without the writing you would merely have a thought or idea floating within your head the writing is what helps one to express themselves and helps them acquire the skills needed to put forth the whole message of what they want or need to say.

When reading, most people oftentimes analyze the main character(s) and what the author may try to convey through them. However, sometimes the secondary characters contribute a lot more to the story than the readers realize. In High Fidelity by Nick Hornby, the story follows a man by the name of Rob Fleming through various stages of his life, highlighting his wins and losses in his relationships and friendships. By taking a deeper look into the novel, readers learn that secondary characters reveal their importance over time, such as Dick and Barry. Hornby uses characterization and comic relief to make apparent what Dick and Barry contribute to the novel.

Writing can be very hard especially for first time writers. There are a lot of things and process that they need to undergo in order to master the art of writing. However, it will be hard for them also to accomplish their writing task if they don't have the attitude towards writing just like most writers do.
