Arghhh... Great. Just when I thought my characters were safe, I get prodded to find deep meaning to their existence ... at 530 in the morning. I may not be able to go back asleep.

This is great. Just what I needed to ask my Protagonist for this story prep I'm working on. Side note: I'm loving all these female protagonists in the Star Wars universe!

This is fantastic. Two simple questions that can unlock a character. And two questions that make me realize I need to rewrite my script :-) Thanks for this!

The best way to discover your story and bring life to your characters is engage them directly. And the best way to do that is to ask questions about and to them. AND two of the best questions to ask are these: Who are you? What will you become? Also: What do you fear the most? And this: Why does THIS story HAVE to happen to THIS character at THIS time?
