Comments on: Character Trait Entry: Honest https://writershelpingwriters.net/2011/07/character-trait-entry-honesty/ Helping writers become bestselling authors Tue, 13 Oct 2015 16:10:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 By: Angela Ackerman https://writershelpingwriters.net/2011/07/character-trait-entry-honesty/#comment-8123 Mon, 11 Jul 2011 13:25:44 +0000 https://writershelpingwriters.net/2011/07/character-trait-entry-honesty/#comment-8123 Wow guys, thanks again for all the great comments!

Confession time: this entry really made me think as I wrote it…about myself, and how others perceive me. Honesty is one of my core traits.

Once I realized the negatives of this trait (some of which I definitely struggle with) that awareness led to personal growth. Now I think first before offering advice or opinions, asking myself if honesty is what is needed and wanted in the situation.

Anyway, just wanted to share that–hugs all ’round! 🙂

I have this character in a story named Reina Abaya who is honest to a fault This is a very helpful reference!

I was a lurker for a while back as I often foundthe Emotion Thesaurus to be invaluable. I come back after a long hiatus and see you’ve created new Thesauruses with great quality. Sorry for taking so long, but you can consider me an official follower now!

I know and adore a few REALLY honest people and it’s true, sometimes they can be a bit too honest when it isn’t necessarily called for. : )

Thank you.

You gave me lots of good ideas.

You both have such wonderful insight into these things. 🙂

Great ideas on how to add drama with an honest character.
