Making a detailed outline with ALL of the critical information you can think of makes a huge difference 💫

Key outline attributes should include, but not limited to:

✨Character basics (age, appearance, occupation etc.)
✨Emotional barriers
✨Accomplishments
✨Goals
✨What are they in need of the most? (Love, security, freedom etc.)
✨What are the characters “doings” Or habits? Are they always snacking, a workaholic or self loathing?
✨Journaling in your main characters voices may help you to get to know them a little better

NOTE: This list is not exhaustive, but it can help get the flow going 😇

Happy Writing!
