How do we write characters authentically?

Hello, my dear writer! I assume we've all wondered at the beginning of our writing journey, "How do I find my own writing style? How do I stand out, and how do I make my characters sound authentic?" This post is dedicated precisely to the latter question. How do we write characters authentically?

Observe Different Personalities: Observe people of different age groups, from various cultural backgrounds, and with diverse life experiences. Pay attention to their language, gestures, and behaviors to develop a broad understanding of human diversity.

Take Time for Character Development: Invest time in developing your characters, including their background, motivations, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. The better you know your characters, the more authentically you can portray them.

Utilize Realistic Settings: Place your characters in realistic environments and situations that are recognizable to your readers. Describe the details of their surroundings, such as landscapes, buildings, clothing, and everyday items, to create a vibrant backdrop for your story.

Be Open to Change and Development: Allow your characters room for growth and change. People evolve over time based on their experiences and decisions. Permit your characters to learn from their mistakes, gain new insights, and undergo development.

Everyday SituationsAn additional tip is to place your character in various small situations, even if they are a fantasy figure. For instance, have your character order coffee. What happens if they encounter a ghost? What are their feelings about Christmas? Accompany them while shopping. How do they react when meeting their greatest hero? Describe everyday scenarios that aren't part of your official story but are meant for you to better understand your character.

As a writer, the thought of being paid $260 for helping write a show that has over 12.8 billion minutes viewed is sickening. The writers strike is absolutely crucial for the future of script writing, I can’t see anyone in this generation wanting to work for so little when the workload and potential payout is so massive

A compilation of my favorite hannigram quotes, related lines or conversations throughout the series.

— Uhm... Just because?

S01E01: Apéritif

Hannibal: "God forbid we become friendly."

Will: "I don't find you that interesting."

Hannibal: "You will."

S01E04: Oeuf

Hannibal: "Feeling paternal, Will?"

Will: "Aren't you?"

Hannibal: "Yes."

S01E09: Trou Normand

Hannibal (to Will): "Who knows Abigail better than you and I? All the burden she bears. We are her fathers now. We have to serve her better than Garrett Jacob Hobbs."

S02E01: Kaiseki

Hannibal: "I miss him."

Bedelia: "You are obsessed with Will Graham."

Hannibal: "I am intrigued."

Bedelia: "Obsessively."

S02E09: Shiizakana

Hannibal (to Will): "No one can be fully aware of another human being unless we love them. By that love we see potential in our beloved. Through that love, we allow our beloved to see their potential. Expressing that love, our beloved’s potential comes true. I love you, Will."

S02E10: Naka-Choko

Hannibal: "Stay with me."

Will: "Where else would I go?"

–/–

Alana: "It's just hard to know where you are with each other."

Will: "We know where we are with each other. Shouldn't that be enough?"

S02E12: Tome-wan

Will (to Hannibal): "You're right. We are just alike. You're as alone as I am. And we're both alone without each other."

–/–

Will (to Hannibal): "I bond with Abigail, you take her away. I bond with barely more than the idea of a child, you take it away. You saw to it that I alienated Alana, alienated Jack. You don't want me to have anything in my life that isn't you."

-/-

Hannibal: "Achilles lamenting the death of Patroclus. Whenever he's mentioned in the Iliad, Patroclus seems to be defined by his empathy."

Will: "He became Achilles on the field of war. He died for him there, wearing his armor."

Hannibal: "He did. Hiding and revealing identity is a constant theme throughout the Greek epics."

Will: "As are battle-tested friendships."

Hannibal: "Achilles wished all Greeks would die, so that he and Patroclus could conquer Troy alone. Took divine intervention to bring them down."

S02E13: Mizumono

Hannibal: "We could disappear now. Tonight. Feed your dogs, leave a note for Alana, and never see her or Jack again. Almost polite."

Will: "Then this would be our last supper."

Hannibal: "Of this life. I served lamb."

Will: "Sacrificial."

Hannibal: "I don't need a sacrifice, do you?"

–/–

Will: "You were supposed to leave."

Hannibal: "We couldn't leave without you."

...

Hannibal: "Time did reverse. The teacup that I shattered did come together. A place was made for Abigail in your world... You understand? A place was made for all of us, together. I wanted to surprise you. And you... you wanted to surprise me. I let you know me. See me. I gave you a rare gift. But you didn't want it."

Will: "Didn't I?"

...

Hannibal: "Do you believe you could change me, the way I've changed you?"

Will: "I already did."

Hannibal: "Fate and circumstance has returned us to this moment— when the teacup shatters. I forgive you, Will. Will you forgive me?"

S03E02: Primavera

Will: "A valentine written on a broken man."

–/–

Will: "I do feel closer to Hannibal here. God only knows where I'd be without him."

Abigail: "What did you see?"

Will: "He left us his broken heart."

Abigail: "How did he know we were here?"

Will: "He didn't. But he knew we'd come."

Abigail: "He misses us."

S03E03: Secondo

Hannibal: "He said he forgave me."

...

Bedelia: "Betrayal and forgiveness are best seen as something akin to falling in love."

Hannibal: "You cannot control with respect to whom you fall in love."

–/–

Chiyoh: "How do you know Hannibal?"

Will: "One could argue intimately."

Chiyoh: "'Nakama'? It's a Japanese word for very close friends."

Will: "Yes, we were 'nakama'."

–/–

Chiyoh: "Why are you looking for him after he left you with a smile?"

Will: "I've never known myself as well as I know myself when I'm with him."

–/–

Jack: “Will Graham understands Hannibal. He accepts him. Now, who among us doesn’t want understanding and acceptance?”

–/-

Bedelia: “What your sister made you feel was beyond your conscious ability to control or predict."

Hannibal: "Or negotiate."

Bedelia: "I would suggest what Will Graham makes you feel is not dissimilar. A force of mind and circumstance.”

Hannibal: “Love. He pays you a visit or he doesn't.”

S03E04: Aperitivo

Jack: "You remember when you decided to call Hannibal?"

Will: "I wasn't decided when I called him. I just called him. I deliberated while the phone rang. I decided when I heard his voice."

Jack: "You told him we knew."

Will: "I told him to leave. 'Cause I wanted him to run."

Jack: "Why?"

Will: "Because... because he was my friend. And because I wanted to run away with him."

–/–

Dr. Chilton: "Will Graham is alive because Hannibal Lecter likes him that way."

Jack: "Maybe it's one of those friendships that ends after the disemboweling."

Dr. Chilton: "I would argue, with these two, that's tantamount to flirtation."

S03E06: Dolce

Jack: "Hannibal will slip away. Will you slip away with him?"

Will: "Part of me will always want to."

–/–

Hannibal: "If I saw you everyday, forever, Will, I would remember this time."

Will: "Strange seeing you here in front of me. Been staring at afterimages of you in places you haven't been in years."

...

Will: "I wanted to understand you... before I laid eyes on you again. I needed it to be... clear. What I was seeing."

Hannibal: "Where does the difference between the past and the future come from?"

Will: "Mine?"... "Before you and after you."

...

Will: "You and I... have begun to blur."

Hannibal: "Isn't that how you found me?"

Will: "Every crime of yours, feels like one I'm guilty of. Not just Abigail's murder, every murder. Stretching backward and forward in time."

Hannibal: "Freeing yourself from me and me freeing myself from you. They're the same."

Will: "We're conjoined. I'm curious whether either of us can survive separation."

S03E07: Digestivo

Hannibal: "Do we talk about teacups and time, and the rules of the disorder?"

Will: "The teacup's broken. It's never gonna gather itself back together again."

Hannibal: "Not even in your mind?"... "Your memory palace is building, it's full of new things. It shares some rooms with my own. I've discovered you there, victorious."

Will: "When it comes to you and me, there can be no decisive victory."

Hannibal: "We are a zero-sum game?"

Will: "I miss my dogs. I'm not going to miss you. I'm not going to find you. I'm not going to look for you. I don't want to know where you are or what you do. I don't want to think about you anymore."

Hannibal: "You delight in wickedness and then berate yourself for the delight."

Will: "You delight. I tolerate... I don't have your appetite."

Will: "Goodbye, Hannibal."

–/–

Hannibal (to Will): "I want you to know exactly where I am, or where you can always find me."

S03E09: ...and the Woman Clothed with the Sun

Hannibal: "Is there a child in your life, Will? I gave you a child, if you recall."

–/–

Will: "You called us "murder husbands.""

Freddie Lounds: "You did run off to Europe together."

S03E10: ...and the Woman Clothed in Sun

Bedelia: "Have you been to see him?"

Will: "Yes."

Bedelia: "You haven't learned your lesson have you? Or did you just miss him that much?"

–/–

Bedelia (to Will): "My relationship with Hannibal isn't as passionate as yours. You are here visiting an old flame. Is your wife aware how intimately you and Hannibal know each other?"

S03E11: ...and the Beast from the Sea

Will (to Hannibal): "I'm not fortune's fool. I'm yours."

S03E12: The Number of the Beast is 666

Will: "Is Hannibal... in love with me?"

Bedelia: "Could he daily feel a stab of hunger for you and find nourishment at the very sight of you?... Yes. But do you ache for him?"

S03E13: The Wrath of the Lamb

Hannibal: "When life becomes maddeningly polite, think about me. Think about me, Will. Don't worry about me."

–/–

Will: "I knew you wanted me to know exactly where I could find you when I needed to."

Hannibal: "And you did."

Will: "I need you Hannibal." ... "Please."

–/–

Will: "It really does look black in the moonlight."

Hannibal: "See? This is all I ever wanted for you, Will. For both of us."

Will: "It's beautiful."

The Original Uncut Script for ✨The Bear’s Pilot Episode✨ and 🔥Bonus Scenes🔥 I found from it!

- No. 1. Something about Richie being introduced to us as “40, Asshole, Beef Shirt” is poetic to me.

2. Carmy is apparently a lil sneakerhead! Cute!

3. CARMY PUNCHED SOMEONE AT EMP IN NEW YORK? I KNEW IT

4. Apparently Carmy was supposed to have a blow up in front of everyone and scare ts outta them EP 1 😳🤣👀 I feel like they wrote that off to surprise us when Carmy really lost it in the last few episodes of season 1 but damn… also SydCarmy had a lil moment 👀

5. Richie kinda inadvertently scared Sydney… put his hand on her waist, what was he thinking? Thank God he’s made a change for the better, he’s much more respectful now.

#love this show #sydcarmy moments in there…#sydcarmy #sydney adamu #carmy x sydney #carmy berzatto #syd x carmy #carmy the bear #carmy smut #the bear #the bear tv #x black reader #black women #richie jerimovich #ayo edebiri #ebon moss bachrach #jeremy allen white #scriptwriting #constructed script

ִ ࣪𖤐 Waiting Room Ideas𐦍༘.

Hello! Everyone this is my first time writing a blog on Tumblr so do not expect me to be really good at it.

I research about some waiting room while I was just randomly thinking of underrated drs and other places to go to. And i came across so many ideas so i thought why not share them with you all.

So here is the list:

1. A Luxurious Mansion

Mansions are like these as your waiting room. You can add rooms and everything you like.

2. Island all to yourself

Island which you can have it all to yourself. Look there's a map that i provided.

3. Floting Island as waiting room

One of my favourite. having floating Island with magic in there.

4. Space with nature view

It's really the most peaceful and warm place you can have your waiting room at.

5. Vintage train station

Trains can take you to your favourite Drs or the drs you want to go. It's like train method applying it in waiting room.

(the pics are taken from Pinterest if anyone is wanting to download it you can download it from there)

I am stopping the list here because Tumblr won't let me have more then 10 pics to write blog. I will write about other waiting room ideas soon I have a whole list around like 15 more. So stay tuned!

Please do not take the credit of the post. And mention my name if you are going to use my ideas.

general reminder that if you don’t want to script you don’t have to! it is not required do whatever you want to do! even if it’s the bare minimum you know where you want to shift and the details of it all so if you don’t want to script you don’t need to!

I’ve just finished watching Fleabag and it has made a place in my heart. A permanent place.

The script is truly brilliant and so are the characters.

If you haven’t watched it yet, I recommend it. You will find a place in it just as I have.

My new Roman Empire.

I will also mention that Andrew Scott is a priest, so if you are interested in that, then yes, please watch with delectation.

Keep Writing

Hey fellow writers! 📝✨

Just a little reminder that it's totally okay to feel like your work isn't hitting the mark sometimes. We all have those moments where we question our writing skills and doubt our creations. But guess what? That's part of the journey!

Writing is a process of growth and self-discovery. Your "imperfect" work is just a stepping stone towards improvement. Embrace the messiness, the flaws, and the awkward sentences. They're all crucial parts of your unique writing journey.

Remember, every renowned author started somewhere, and the beauty of your craft lies in its evolution.

Your words have power, even on the days when they feel shaky. Share your stories, let your creativity flow, and most importantly, enjoy the ride. You've got this!

Whoa look at this leaked Secret Invasion script from a deleted scene!

damn seriously the writing on this show was rough. Also, wow they cut so much stuff? The foreshadowing in this scene is wild.

I can’t believe Maria died for Operation Glasses.

Hi Mr Flanagan!

Doctor Sleep is one of my favorite movies ever! I was wondering if you could speak to the challenge of following up 2 really iconic pieces of pop culture (the King's book vs Kubrick's movie) that have different themes and execution. I'm really curious to hear about how you approached that specific aspect of the movie and if you could share your feelings of the book vs movie, specifically which themes you feel are emphasized in each. If you've answered this before in interviews or other ask my bad, just always wondered about your interpretation of theses works and how they impacted your interpretation of the sequel. Thanks!!!

As it happens, I just did a podcast interview where we talked about this very thing at length. Here's the link: https://www.scriptapart.com/episodes/episode-66-doctor-sleep-mike-flanagan-interview Hope you enjoy!
