character+development

How much about your characters do you really know? Small details might seem superfluous even irrelevant to the story you intend to write, but the smallest detail informs the bigger picture. The more you know about your characters, the better you’ll create believable characters who live and breathe on the page and in their own fictional world. Take time to answer each of these questions candidly and deeply. Expand your responses to include other questions that may arise.
