Today would have normally been a major day, but instead we spent the whole period talking about monologues and how to perform them. I had no idea that there was a whole process to performing a monologue the right way. First, a good method to use is color code the monologue. In one color, highlight when the character says something about their life. In another color, highlight when a person talks about philosophy. In another color, highlight when the person talks about their location. Next, ask yourself what the character wants. After that, ask yourself what you want to get out of the person your talking too. When your finished with your own character, follow the same steps for the character you are talking too.
