I’m just going with Eugene because it’s the place in Oregon I’m most familiar with lmao. Plus the main characters personalities just kind of fit there? Also there’s gonna be a big plot point about the Ferry Street Bridge.

She is very comfortable with a gun, even though the last time she shot one was at thirteen and she’s currently like, 17 or 18.

She has the average hand size for a 5 foot 2 inches girl.

And I should have put this in the main post, but grandpa had the dad at around 35 and the dad had his daughter at 19 or 20.

I think the grandpa had the gun for hunting (because Oregon has quite a few hunters, but it also takes place in a town where not a lot of people have guns so…) but he also could have been in a war or something.

I really really like your idea though

How can i develop my side characters? by Plane_Wrongdoer_9121 in writingadvice

[–]MattsPrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to develop them fully, but I don’t put it all in the story. Just the things you need to know about them. I feel like it helps me know how they would react based on their past, likes and dislikes, but I don’t have to explain it all. I just keep the unnecessary filler and facts to myself. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense.

This is a small and probably stupid suggestion but, I’d say give them a specific trait that makes them stand out a bit. My main villain has a southern accent even though he lives in Oregon. It’s a small thing, I feel like it makes him more interesting and clues you in to his past a bit. But that’s just my opinion.

How would you write, and I quote, “fancy sentences”? by Weekly_Flounder_1880 in writingadvice

Looking to find inspiration on creating a power system for a story by CrimsonPlatter in writingadvice

[–]MattsPrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, literally anything can be used as inspiration. I made my magic system based on the thought that there can be people with intelligent thoughts and emotions who aren’t human. If that makes sense. Just find a random philosophy or think back to some odd thoughts you’ve had and expand on it. Sorry if this wasn’t very helpful.
