Audience Segments

Indi Young hat im Blog zu ihrem Buch einen kurzen aber lesenswerten Beitrag veröffentlicht: Audience Segments As Characters.

When writing character descriptions, write them in the first person. For example, "I like to make a plan, and it really makes me happy when everyone on my team follows that plan without argument." Writing this way allows you to write what the character would really say about themselves. You want to avoid writing descriptions that would embarrass the person you are describing. Not that it will happen, but if that person ever read the description, you want her to be comfortable with what is said.

Der kurze Text enthält auch ein paar ganz interessante Kommentare und Links in den Kommentaren.
