Creating a character when you’re writing a book, short story, screenplay or telling any other type of story can be fun and exciting! It can also be a little daunting—there is a lot to consider. Part of creating a character, whether they’re the protagonist,
or antagonist or supporting character, is giving them compelling, unique characteristics and finding a way that works for you to keep track of everything.
Create a profile for your character that includes things like their name, personality traits, and strengths and weaknesses.
Give your character quirks and vulnerabilities to make them more dimensional.
Each character in your story needs to have a name, whether they are the main character or secondary characters. And each name needs to fit within the story you’re telling. For example, if you’re writing a story based in 17th century Ireland, “Bob” isn’t going to be a very believable name, but “Aidan” would be super appropriate.
Or if you’re writing about a group of close friends, avoid giving them similar names, like three girls named Kate, Cathy, and Katy.
Even if you don’t end up using someone’s name in your story, like for minor characters, it’s helpful for you as the writer to know the name so you can keep the details of the story straight as you rewrite and edit your work.
Try using baby name websites for ideas.
For your character to be more realistic, look up lists of names common during your character's birth year and location.
Many name sites have information on the history and etymology of a name. Consider that some sites like, Behind the Name are more aimed towards name research than to expecting parents (such as Nameberry).
Create a system for keeping track of each character’s profile.
is a place where you keep important details and dates for every character in your story, from what their allergies are to the date that one really important thing happened. Do this for every character, no matter how small their role. There are a lot of ways you can organize this information:
Keep a file folder with notes for each character.
Have a notebook where you keep the character details.
Use a word document on your computer.
Utilize the “notes” function on your smart phone.
Listen to your character and make changes if you need to.
No, literally—read your work out loud and listen to how your character sounds. Pay attention to the dialogue and how it flows, and listen to your character descriptions. Hearing your own writing out loud can show you where you maybe need to add more detail or even take away some repetitive writing.
There are also some software programs that will read your documents to you. Check out your writing program to see if it comes with that function.
Pay attention to your minor characters—they could be important.
As you write, you may find that a minor character plays a bigger role than you thought they would, or maybe someone you thought was going to be a major character ends up being not as important. Use your character profiles to track these changes and work with them rather than trying to force your characters into certain roles.
For example, J.K. Rowling had several of the “minor” characters, like Neville Longbottom and Dean Thomas, originally playing much bigger parts in the
