A wise woman once said that you should know your characters better than your own blood.

Well, that wise woman might just be me, and I don’t even know my own blood type.

Alas, we all do need to know our main characters like the back of our hands–our cramping, sweating, carpal tunnel-ridden hands.

And one good way to go about knowing/learning all of that?

Character interviews!

So, guys, here today I present you all with this extensive list of random and sometimes stupid questions to ask your own characters!

Read through them, copy and paste ’em into a Word doc for safekeeping, and answer them from the voices of your very real and round characters!

Also, as a sidenote, ahem… assume each question wants to also explain why or just generally elaborate more than yes/no; I mean, give more than a 7th grade student would on their history homework after school on a Friday night.

Come on, guys, let’s do this!

• What is your favorite smell?

• What kind of dream(s) did you have last night?

• Have you ever been involved with any sports or rec activities?

• Do you believe in the supernatural?

• Do you currently hold the occupation you really want?

• How many fingers/toes do you still have in tact?

• Who is your favorite actor? Does he/she also star in your favorite movie?

• Do you have any scars? (Physically and/or mentally!)

• What is the best advice you could give anyone about anything?

• Do you want to have kids? (Whether you do or don’t already.)

• What is your morning ritual?

• Potted plants or pets?

And lastly…

• What is your blood type?

Now, don’t you feel more knowledgeable?

Let me know what some of your character’s answers were!
