Create three names for characters. You might use them in fiction, creative non-fiction, or narrative poetry. In any event, you're stretching somewhat and focusing and writing.
When you create these names,
1. Make the last name concrete (like Stone or Oakes).
2. Make the first name alliterative or have internal rhyme (Sally Stone; Joe Oakes).
3. Avoid creating porn star names (Rod Steele, Penny Laide).
4. Write a short description of each character you create.
5. Enjoy!
When you have created your characters, please list the names here by clicking comment below.

Here are mine. Thanks for the prompt!
ReplyDeleteWilliam Woods – would have preferred to go by Will or Billy but decided at an early age that William sounded more grown-up.
Mona Rhodes – 60-something poetess who wears long, flowered house dresses and styles her silver hair long and parted in the middle.
Lana Lake – up and coming journalist new to the big city, so young that she can’t imagine taking notes with pencil and paper.
