Love that little tidbit ... you were the kind of shy reluctant to sneeze out loud for fear people would look. I admire you for conquering that to take acting classes. Great advice for other introverts (and aspiring authors) out there.Deborah Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575491644343480392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-79605466352634801072012-03-27T16:36:08.740-04:002012-03-27T16:36:08.740-04:00Great post!

A tip I give my students is to sit back, close your eyes, and become the character. I call it method acting for writers. Once you envision yourself as the character, you better understand what that character would say and how she would act in the scene.Lois Winstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01866423986250423199noreply@blogger.com
