Topic : Re: Writing exercises to practice the art of giving unique voice to characters? I've read many blogs which teach you how to give a unique voice to each of your characters. I feel I understand - selfpublishingguru.com

I think that the easiest way to write engaging and organic dialogue is to know your character inside and out. This way, you will find their inner voice--their way of speaking, thinking. To know them is to let their unique voice ring true.

An exercise might be to compile a back history on your intended character and put them in a small "situation". Write a monologue for your character, a plan to get them out of the situation, either triumphantly or tragically. Etc., etc., for the rest of your characters.

Every character you can think of to write is merely an extension of yourself. We are all multi-faceted. Just dig in there and find that character in yourself.

Good luck.
