Kind of awesome and freaky how you picked that out. =P What it means is that the character believes he can achieve anything, so long as it's humanly possible. It's something I've always believed in as well, and it's given me confidence in the things I try.Hope Adonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01369027103110493319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971872664376363826.post-90626786265854916562012-11-26T03:30:25.619-05:002012-11-26T03:30:25.619-05:00"If it can be done, it will be done" is ..."If it can be done, it will be done" is that the one you share?<br />Just a guess ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971872664376363826.post-80158620237839672422012-11-22T19:46:54.371-05:002012-11-22T19:46:54.371-05:00The motto is a reflection of a character's mos...The motto is a reflection of a character's most important trait or outlook or personal goal. If your character is a jerk, why so? Is it because he trusts no one? "Trust no one" could be that motto that helps you stay on character (it doesn't have to be original, just specific). Is it because he's arrogant? Maybe then it would be "Survival of the fittest" or "Kindness is weakness" or something. Hope that helps and thanks!

For example, "Justice, loyalty and kinship" probably wouldn't suit a villain. Then, before writing anything, I try to have a basic understanding of who/what sort of person I'm dealing with. Once that's solid in mind and I've constructed a single sentence that defines the character, I start to come up with written details about the character, all the while using the motto as a point of reference. I've found that, with a motto, it's easier to remember what is important to the person throughout writing the story. Even if the character isn't new, I try to take a moment to create a motto and use it from then on. :)Hope Adonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01369027103110493319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971872664376363826.post-23761335139058391892012-10-08T02:42:29.141-04:002012-10-08T02:42:29.141-04:00Any tips on how to create good mottoes?
