Book Description
A LIST OF 1,000 CHARACTER REACTIONS As an author, are your characters always sighing and nodding? Did you just sigh and nod? If so, this handy little booklet is for you! Sometimes as new (or even experienced) authors, we can't think of just the right action for our character's body in a particular scene, and we need something to get the creative juices flowing. This is a quick and easy reference tool just for that purpose. Jam-packed with a list of 1,000 physical reactions a character can have, organized by body part from head to toe to internal organs, you'll never be left scratching your head when you need to find just the right way to describe your character's reactions! Excerpt: FOREHEAD Forehead wrinkling Forehead slicking with sweat Slapping or hitting forehead with palm Banging forehead against a surface Wiping moisture off forehead Pressing fingers against forehead Tapping forehead with pencil or finger Forehead baking with a fever Resting forehead in hand(s) Splaying back of hand on forehead as if faint Poking forehead with thumb to jog memory Banging forehead with fists to stop crazy thoughts Indie Author Resources Book 1
