Have you ever gotten into the mindset of a special character? What about getting into the mindset of a First Lady?
Venita Ellick did it in her novel The Reluctant First Lady.
Here's her writing experience:
How do you get into the mindset of a First Lady?
"I didn’t find it hard. As I wrote the story, I closed my eyes and imagined how I would feel in each situation. I could see the scene in my mind, like a play, and I would write the feeling tone of what I felt in the dialogue. That’s really all a writer can do. Create, imagine, decide how much of your own perspective, your bias, to include in the story.
Having been a working mom with many demands, tugs and pulls on my time from all of the factions of my life, it made it easy to imagine Ashley’s scenario".
Thanks, Venita!
