I just spelled the word writing wrong once, believe me I edit my books - this is yahoo answers of course I'm typing fast.

I edit my book 6 times before publishing it.

Answer 1

Give the character a severe allergy ie peanuts or eggs that causes them to go into anaphalactic shock. have them eat something with peanuts or eggs or whatever in. They could have done it on purpose/suicide or someone could have fed them that food making it murder.

Answer 2

many ways it depends on the staging, gun, shot at close range, poison, how was it administered? Carbon monoxide, can you prove someone knocked the victim out or drug-ed them then put them in a garage with the car running., run over by a subway train, did they jump or were they pushed. Almost any way a victim can die can be murder or suicide. Interesting that a portion seemed creeped out by imagining how to murder someone and another portion are intrigued by the planning. I'm intrigued with imagining the various situations and I don't plan to act on any of them. I doubt the real murders out there need any help only someone with an authors imagination would ask. I once did a small study of a group of friends, the best spellers had the least creative minds. I am not sure what that means.

in line with danger volatile, all and sundry has a generic character,so your risking a reader being dissapointed interior the radical all mutually, in the event that they warmed nicely to the main significant character. Or it introduce originality, ive in no way examine some thing while the protagonist gets killed off early. it might desire to surely make the story adventorous. yet a reader wouldnt stop analyzing the e book purely with the aid of fact a character died lol, decide for it.

I've answered another post. if its the same character, a 27 year old women she would approach it as a women.

write a note that he was distraught about not seeing thr child and whats occured during those 5 years and wants to commit suicide so his daughter can have the insurance money (tragic hero syndrome)...but she is caught as life insurance policies have suicde clauses.

Answer 5

One way it would look suicide, was if the character killed the other character by hanging them.It would look like suicide it's really not.

Answer 6

Sure this is for a novel and not to "Do it" yourself?

Hey people do not help this creep, we don't want to give any ideas on how to murder other people.

And that webpage means nothing, I can pick up any webpage and say it's mine.

Answer 7

Breaking a neck, any trauma to the head that could be caused in a fall or accident.
cutting main arteries in the wrists--roman sucide but you could bleed someone out by that method.
drugs that could be mistaken for someone OD'ing.

Answer 8

The toaster accidentally falling into the bath tub.

Answer 9

You are WRITING a novel (uh, huh) NOT "WRITTING" one. And if you cannot research this yourself and come up with something creative, I suggest you put down your pen and leave the "writting" to someone who knows their stuff. And I agree with the poster who wonders if this is a Do it Yourself question!
