Answer:

Personal reach

Step-by-step explanation:

What I always did is look into my personal life and find people with similar backstories or who look like they'd execute that well. I never use their real names, but I use the first letter or two of their names. To find the actual storyline get creative. Mix and match shows you've thought always were fun. Without plagiarism.

i.e - Kelly - Kelson

Answer:

That depends on what your writing your story about, but I would look it up.
