Chick-lit fans: Can you relate to this character trait?
Posted by: admin / Category: Chick LitThe first page of my book is an article my character’s written on why girlfriends wear their boyfriends clothes around the house (only when nobody can see them).
Could you relate to that aspect of the character?
Is it a good or bad first impression?
Maddie: Thanks for the help. Its an article she’s hoping to publish in a weekly fashion magazine. But its also supposed to indicate her affection for her boyfriend.
What is AP style?
Make sure that the article conforms to AP style and that you know a little about newspapers or what ever publication she is writing for. If its an alternative weekly then use some cursing or local refrences. If it’s a magazine then talk in fashion terms.
It’s a good impression of the character and book you are trying to write. But remember you dont have to limit yourself to chick lit. You can go above and beyond and make it as real a character as possible.
