# Writing Prompts & Best Practices

Understanding some best practices will help you achieve the desired results. \
It is best to do following when formulating your prompts:

* Describe the shape of the character (anatomy, facial features, etc.)
* Famous people can be used as a reference
* You can also describe non-anatomical features, such as a characterization of the character or their context

However, it is best to avoid the following when formulating your prompts:

* As this plugin produces a character shape, *do not* describe anything that won’t be part of the output such as  a specific pose, facial expression, hair or facial hair,, clothing, accessories, etc.
* *Do not* describe figures that have non-human anatomical features (e.g., mermaids, fairies, centaurs, cyclopes, mutilation, etc.)

The following are properly formulated sample prompts:

* “A retired 50 year old boxer. He has a big forehead, his jawline is square, his cheekbones prominent, and his nose was broken in the past. While still muscular, he has accumulated fat over the years and has a visible beer belly.”
* “A plus-size female model of Asian descent, she is 5 months into her pregnancy.”
* “A skinny troll with big hands.”
