While this event previously was for 2019 I am going to open it back up as just an all-around prompt for anyone who wishes to actually have something fun to do in these dark times and maybe even try your hand at self character development while you're at it.
And hay... the first person (who isn't an admin) who finishes ALL of the sessions, every last one of them, will get a prize from me personally. That will be discussed, cor now, have fun, and happy writing!
_____
Blah blah blah blah... So what is it you’re actually going to be doing?
I'm glad you asked....
You, yes you, the person sitting at the keyboard right now, will be interviewing one, two, three or all of your characters if you so choose. (Within reason.**)
Have you ever wondered what your character thinks about you? Or what would happen if you admitted that you are the reason for the good/bad things that have happened to your character? Or how they would react to meeting you? Or if you just wanted to give them a big hug? Now is your chance to find that out and to have tons of fun doing it!
_____
Make the scene as you wish, be it in a room to interrogate them, in a group therapy session, or a TV interview! Make it whatever you can to make it pop in your own creative eye. You can do this however you please along with following the prompts that are given per session. These sessions are to be posted as a blog with the title: Interview followed by whatever session it may be.
_____
Meeting the Cast:
In this beginning portion we'll start out with something easy by meeting you and your character(s): With this, you and your character can sit and get to know each other. Examples could be what is their first impression when they walk in the room? What is yours? How does the initial greeting go between you both? Why are they there? Why did you create them? Ect.
Fun Times:
What are some fun times that you had with your character? What are the times that your character actually enjoyed themselves? What can you both find that you laugh about? Kick back, relax, and enjoy some comical fun with your character(s).
**Note: This is optional for the giggles of it.**
Questions:
What are some things the character wishes to ask? Why was one certain thing done? Why all the hardship? Certain loves being lost? Why torment them? How they themselves feel about it.
Character/Writer Roast:
Let the curses fly, everyone just has a mosh pit, or a roast. Let the character(s)/writer bicker to the writer/char and let it all out. Does your character think that you're weak for someone writing someone such a hardass? Or do you think your character needs to pump up those rookie numbers in badassness? Nows your time to say!
**Note: This is optional for the giggles of it.**
Heart to Heart:
Writer/Char can come clean about things. Hows when times in the life of the writer when they made something happened to the char? How the char took it? Movies or books that they read that remind them of said character? Why the character likes or dislikes certain things? Huge impacts on either person's life that affected the other? How the char likes/hates their lives for it? The possibilities are endless!
Final Interview - The Conclusion:
The epic conclusion of your hard work. It’s been a whole year now and so much has happened. So how has your character changed? What will your character do now?

- To get to a point, this event is in no way shape or form a ploy or reason to exploit the writer themselves. While you may personally interpret yourself in your writing, we do not ask for your name, age, or any other outer writing information in these events.
- Just because you missed any of the parts does not mean that you cannot jump in at any time. Those sessions/margins are only there for when the next session topic will be posted. Feel free to do them one at a time during these timeframes or all together at the end if you wish.
- Please keep it a decent rating. People from all over will be reading your posts! It's implored that you keep it clean and comfortable for everyone. (Cuss all you want, just no nasty stuff, please and thanks.)
- **For the sake of not flooding the blog section, keep your character count to 5 per person. If you do wish to have more combine some into a single blog post per session.)
- And of course, have fun. If you have any questions please message this account and I will gladly answer them for you.
