Day 3
Character Profiles.
Character profiles are the best way to store the most important information about your characters in one place. Profiles can be created on a piece of paper, in a digital document or in a note-taking app like Notion.
Create a rough character profile for your characters, main and otherwise. You don’t have to go into details at this time. Simply note down the basics like their physical features, their goals in life, the reason why they act the way they do.
When drafting characters, keep in mind how their attitudes, backgrounds and even physical features affect the plot. As the story progresses, it is not unusual for your character’s psychology to change so do not fixate on the details. It is only important that you understand your character’s most basic motivations at this time.
