But that's not always true, but I feel like it is. It's fun to write them, though. Just hard for me to make them all flow well.Jill Williamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11943570354349667196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-45726154302427611972013-05-15T16:50:59.338-05:002013-05-15T16:50:59.338-05:00Hope it helps, Kate! :-)Hope it helps, Kate! :-)Jill Williamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11943570354349667196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-11517598946361537242013-05-15T16:50:30.363-05:002013-05-15T16:50:30.363-05:00You're welcome, Hannah!

So for the scenes they do together, I have to choose the right character point of view to tell it from. I find sometimes, other characters points of view just seem to work better with different situations.<br />Great post Jill!<br />Thanks!Emmi Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16103869981438471742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-60785167564393285862013-05-14T18:37:54.333-05:002013-05-14T18:37:54.333-05:00Oh my, this post was amazing!

Because my brother does too. He's put a couple videos on YouTube, and they're actually pretty good. <br /><br />He says if I ever finish a book that he wants to be the one to make it into a movie someday. :)<br /><br />~Katelyn~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-8700431391431942152013-05-14T14:05:12.227-05:002013-05-14T14:05:12.227-05:00This looks like an interesting exercise!
