Have You Completed A Character Questionnaire?

Creative Writing Tips -

Complete a character questionnaire for each of your main characters or even secondary characters that play a vital role in your story. This way you will know your character(s) well before you start writing about them.

Fill in as much information about them as possible. Don't only answer what you will need in your story. The objective here is to get to know your character till he becomes a 'live' person in your mind.

So let's begin?

Whatever you feel for this character, your emotions must be strong. If they are not, either build on this further or begin building another character altogether.
