Elements of Fiction

For me I would have to say i probably focus on characters and plot the most, when I am writing i always have the main character somewhat figured out, who they are, what they look like, and how they are going to act in certain situations. I usually start with the main character but not always, in my book I started with the main characters mom in my first draft because i hadnt quite figured my main character out. After i figured her out i went back and changed the beginning to start with her like i wanted to in the first place. Usually after you have the main character I would say plot next actually to me plot and characters kind of go hand in hand because, whats going to happen to the charatcers and who is interacting with who. So I would say most importantly you have to know what is going on before anything. I think that i am drawn to these two because I am a people person I am always interested in the people in anything, books, movie, tv. And I alos love the plot, I like to see the creative ideas that other people have come up with and might even get some influences for my own stories and ideas.
