Kazza's Guides: Writing a Witty Character

Witty characters are what I, in my own opinion, write best and enjoy most; even though I do like to try as wide a range of different characters as possible in order to develop myself as a writer. Being witty is not an easy task, especially if it’s not a gift you were born with. Often the result is varying, to a degree where I end up either loving or hating what I’ve written.

The guide begins with an introduction to wit and different types of it. If you think you already have that part covered, feel free to scroll to the ending where I share some pointers on how to go about writing a witty character or witty dialogue.

Let’s begin.

This is a masterlist of 500 or so personality traits. They’re ones I use myself as well, and posting this is just me collecting every source I have and putting it on one pile. Hurray for that.

“No one will be alive by the last book. In fact, they all die in the fifth. The sixth book will be just a thousand-page description of snow blowing across the graves.”

George R.R. Martin [when asked if he was going to let any Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire characters live] (via let-them-eat-static)

This is not a bio format template, it’s more of a character development writing template that I use when it comes to creating my characters. This format works for me personally but you can obviously add/remove anything you find relevant. You can download a formatted (.rtf) version here for easier use.

If you ever run out of ides for a last name, check here and maybe you’ll find one that’s calling you! (I put it on numbers so perhaps you could CTRL+F and type a number for a random name!) Some are more common than others. In alphabetical order.
