This is actually really useful, helped me keep my characters in character and give some personality to my minor and secondary characters.

banditsns1391 I can see how this is/was helpful. I'm going to try to reference it while I write. It would be fun to expand the list. There's bound to be some traits that can overlap and become neutral. You know, such as "she's loyal to a fault." It's a good trait to have, but sometimes she might be loyal to the wrong people. But, absolutely, this is such a good tool to start with.

I’ll never forget the araw I had encountered a ghosts with my best friends. And I will be happy to share that story with you.
It was August 20th exactly one week before the start of middle school. My best friend Alex and I sat outside on the curb and ate our half melted presa ice cream on a cone. It must’ve been 95 degrees outside because we could feel our sweet dripping off our faces. We didn’t say much because the calefaction made us not want to be social. We sat there in silence and licked our ice cream.
“What do you think middle school will be like, Collin?” Alex broke the...

Into The Ocean

posted by RainSoul

What do you do when the gray waves roll over your head, and your body is too weak to swim ashore. Do you panic and scream and try anyway to break the surface of the water? Do you silently cry and pray and tell your loved ones you pag-ibig them one madami time. Or because you know it's futile to fight ibigay to the lulling cold darkness halik at your eyelids? Do you let the salty seawater drain into your lungs and choke to death's waiting arms?

Or do you float to the surface and wait for the storm to pass and sunlight to pierce your shivering mass of a body?.. You choose wisely.. You wake up in a...

Monologue

posted by xoxpoisonxox

This is a Monolouge I wrote a little while nakaraan for drama class. We had to write a dramatic one. So this monologue is about a girl who is talking to her therapist about a kamakailan event with her friend.

Tell me what you think!

My mother says you can help me - Help me make sense of it. I don't beilive in therapists - But I guess ill .....0give it a try..

You know, Some say suicide is the most selfish act one person can make.. I used to think this too. But now it doesn't make sense to me how the most selfless, kind , person I know - knew- could be labled as selfish..

How long have I known her? Well...

Character Names!!!!

posted by breebree446

To think, most of my character names come from a thrift store baby book!

Baby Name Books!

My #1 resource is the baby name book I bought from a thrift store. It's a lifesaver! Not only does it have over 5,000 names but origins, boy and girl names, and alternate spelling. But, if you can't get a hold of a baby name book there's always...

Name Websites!

Just as good and pretty much the same thing. They have access to millions of names online! One website I find really useful;

I shouldn’t have shot the dog. I definitely shouldn’t have shot the dog. Even if he did chew upon my prized drumsticks, and feast upon my freshly-baked brownies. The little white-and-brown terror, Mickey, belonged to my neighbor. My neighbor, an 87-year-old chain-smoker named Mary, rarely left the confines of her living room. She sat, araw in and araw out, as her precious mutts wreaked havoc about the neighborhood.
You can see it! My house, the little beasts have chewed upon everything their gnashing, tiny, sharp little teeth could find. I did my best to keep them out, but the little bastards...

Too Soon For The End (4)

As I try to think of something, anything to say to him now, I recall the first time I saw Sam outside of school.
It was about a taon ago. Tyler was at my house playing with Jen. It was late and they both needed to be put to bed. Their tiredness only resulted in them fighting. I eventually put them on time-outs until Tyler’s uncle showed up. Or I thought it would be his uncle. It turned out to be Sam. I opened the door when he knocked and was a little thrown to see him. I recognized him from school, but only as the quiet boy I’d never talked to. His hair was wet as if he’d just showered...

Teens of Warfare

SURGE

Surge, a moderately tall teenager wearing an open red shirt, stood in the middle of what was once New York’s Time Square. At first, second, and possibly even third glance Surge did not look like the kind you would want to have a conversation with. He had a strange looking tattoo that adorned his chest like a necklace. His muscles were toned, and his hair was an unkempt blonde. None of this was what would have frightened someone though. What frightened people were the claws strapped to his wrists. They came to sharp, slightly curved, points that dripped with blood.
Surge stood now amongst...

Coach

Chapter 1: From a mesa Away

Kids, you know your Uncle Barney; Scotch, money and women. Those three words pretty much summed up his life. He couldn't ask for a better life. Little did he know, he was about to get a rude awakening. You see, he had grown accustomed to this cycle, a carousel, if you will. It spun round and round until his life was completely changed by..."The Coach".

An unforgiving canopy of charcoal clouds hung above New York. They seemed detrimental; yearning to release their stockhold of transparent liquid. Rain. That's all it had done for the past week, rain. It...

silky black curls. She tiredly grabbed her classes and stuck them on her pale freckled face. Then she opened her draw and grabed something random. once she was dressed she

I remember the araw of September “Mommy Daddy” when my mom and dad and I were walking in a pitch-black dark hallway. I heard screams, crying, shouts my Mom told me there are things in this world we wont understand. She was right I had no clue what was going on here only god did.

My Dad took off his locket that my Mom gave to him he placed it around my neck and let go I felt the cold golden chain around my neck I looked down. At the golden and silver locket I gently held the locket in my hand I pressed a button and it opened up. There I saw a picture of my Mom on the left side and a picture...

Time's Up...

posted by Buddy8fnj

I looked at my watch, two hours left. The whispers in my head gradually getting louder...I had to get there, I had to try. I walked pasulong into the shack and was immediatly terrified, written in blood all over the walls was "Time's almost up" over and over again, the whispers in my head starting to get louder, and there was a soft humming sound behind it all. I screamed out in confusion, overwhelmed. Then one whisper in my head was finally distinctable, it whispered "don't even try, fool" I tried to ignore it, and looked around the shack for some way, any way to get to get rid of my burden....

Alexis sat on the damo chewing happily on her sandwich, listening to the chatter that was going on around her. Elyon was kneeling not far from her laughing at one of Astrids crude jokes (again), Lily was talking to Rose about some boy in the class above them.Alexis's mind wandered to the time when she was able to talk to the girls and have fun. Like a normall teenager. She closed her eyes, breifly, letting the memories of her past overflow.

A group od girls sat on a large bed, in a large room. Laughing and gossiping. Alexis was there laughing too.The image...

pag-ibig is a legend

posted by mona_me

what a stupid! love! love! love! "i pag-ibig love" "everybody needs to be a lover" "true love" all those stupid words! "bla bla bla"
pag-ibig is a legend, there's nothing u can call it "love" , you can't even define it. you know why? because it isn't there! that's why you can't say i am in pag-ibig and say the same word after two years or two days.
you see, if it worked with your lover, you 'll say you loved each other, and if it didn't work, you'll say it wasn't love!!!
you are all stupid, lovers!
you aren't even "lovers"
because "lovers" is a word from "love" and love's a legend.
when i heard this once when i was young, i didn't believe it.
but know i believe it's the truth, and there's nothing else truth.
you may not believe me now, but you will, in few years in your life.
pag-ibig is a legend.

Heartbreak

There he is just standing there, starring at you with tuta dog eyes. He smiles briefly at you breaking your heart. It’s all too much so you so you slam the door. Before the door shuts he sticks his foot in the door way stopping it.
“I just want to talk.”
“There’s nothing to talk about.” You lie. You don’t want to hear him apologize or even see him. What he did hurt you like nothing else could, still you knew that you loved him and you puso ached for him. You wish you could turn back time to when you both were happy but you know that what’s done is done.
“How about us…”...
