I don't write books / (fanfiction or anything in general) but I DO create characters for my own entertainment, and struggle getting inspo or idea's. So thanks for this!
I like how you write characters! Honestly, characters are super important in any storyline so I am happy to see that you made an entire video dedicated to just that. Delle looks really awesome and I like the fantasy in it + the art. Very well executed. Wishing you luck on that project!
I been needing tips for writing characters! For one of my projects I been wanting to write different characters with different POVs! Your planning for your characters seem so organized! Weekly write with me sounds amazing! Your glasses look great btw ✨✨
awww ur comment has made my dayyy!! thank u so so much! I’m so glad I was even a little bit of help. and I’m so excited to write with all of u this week! and yes - you totally should try and write multi pov’s is so fun!! love u xx
haha just found you, but this was very helpful! I want to make a heart-wrenching book where the pages will be stained by the tears of the reader. As soon as someone gets attached to a good character they will get killed off in the most disgusting horrifying way possible. Even though it will be a sad book it's also going to be very heartfelt and have its happy and funny moments, I love sob stories where the main characters and just kids who need help from the adults and they never get the help they need and slowly grow into a family that's been stitched together by the circumstances of what the adults and gods have put them into 😉
Thanks for showing this site! It's really accurate for wanting to know what your character looks like and it's fun making them come to life! Also a few things I discovered is, if you go to expressions,mouth closed makes the character lighter,mouth open makes the character darker and angry makes the character's face smaller but also serious at the same time.
The way you write your characters is beautiful! I struggle with writing characters and creating profiles, so this helped with both making characters for a book and characters in general! Also, I need that keyboard 😅
I have watched so many different youtubers who talk about character creating. And I can proudly admit that you are my number one favourite! Your videos give off good vibe and makes me feel like I can actually success with my dream of writing a book someday
I subscribed without a glimpse of hesitation!! I’m a french guy and I’m planning on just going to the UK after I graduate, go to oxford, and write books in english ofc 😼💪 I’m honestly a good writer but I’ve NEVER wrote in an other language before! I’m bilingual but there is such a huuuge different between knowing a language and being able to make it lyric anyways can’t wait to write my book and become a famous english writer 👨🔧👨🔧
I love Delle! My character is a lot like her :) I also enjoy adding funny/ironic things into their profiles. My character, Nevaeh, is really good at swimming but is terrified of deep water
Thank you for teaching me a little about how to organize your character lists, and design the characters. I made my own list but it wasn't as organized, I didn't think to add 'strengths' and 'weaknesses' thank you for helping me create better! You have a lot of intelligence and talent. Keep doing you ^-^ God bless you
I love what you said in the Outro. How characters tells you what is going on. And to me, that's the best part about writing. Finding out the story, spontaneously.
This is so helpful! I'm really trying to develop my characters as their traits are so pivotal in what they do and how they think. Also followed your artbreeder tutorial and it's amazing, I love it so much! Thanks for taking the time to help beginner writers like me
Just saw this while I'm writing my story. This broke down a lot of the things I've been having troubles with, thank you so much for this❤️ Is there the link to the template?
Thank you for making this video, I had an idea for a character for months now, but I didn't know how to write all the stuff down, this helped me soooo much! ❤️
I've been trying to find tips in writing and making characters recently so this video really helped so thank you. But I have a question, how can you find or make a perfect or at least suitable name for your characters? And also James of places and kingdoms
Names of places/kingdoms depends on the genre you’re writing in, I can give different advice based on what genre it is if you’d like? And for character names if you’re having trouble coming up with them I’d recommend using a random name generator. A lot of them have options to specify character traits/ time period ect so the name fits. I’ve never looked into it but I’m sure there’s a generator out there for kingdoms too.
Hi! I really like all of your characters, they are really well thought out and creative. Definitely I will look forward to reading a book with them in the future. I hope that my character development gets better because my characters are simple and don't really have that much of a backstory so this is inspo that I can get better at that! Ilysm, Gratitude always, Maddie
Hi, I've read in the comments that the app you're using is google docs? I was just wondering how near the beginning of the video you have a table of contents? Your maps, numbered characters etc. I have 72 characters on one google doc and it's kind of stopped working properly, the find function just refuses to believe certain characters exist because they're so deep in the document. So yeah any tips on how I can better organize would be greatly appreciated, thank you for this informative video
aw that’s awesome! of course I can help. for every section I want to be made i write down the title and go up to the top banner and click on ‘header 1’. this makes it into a section which you can click on in your directory. hope this helped xx
Very helpful! I made a character named Della (meaning Noble; bright) which is ironic to her personality which is suppose to kind of foreshadow to her growth in the future. I have a good idea I know what I want write. I have vague ideas but it’s helped to map out the main character!
M a 13 year old and m really good at making random scenarios in my head and one of them i really like so i wanna write a whole novel of it i have never written anything before so wish me luck
Ooo I really like Delle! I would love to read the book she’s in! Is it the lost citie of zeil she’s from? (I’m very forgetful) A little update on my book I got to 2k words and chapter 4! It’s going really well! I’m sure ur book is aswell! Ily ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Linda, My name is Maddie and I am 11 years old. You probably recognize my name because we have spoken before through the comments. I am very happy to hear that about your novel. My novel writing style is more like a journal entry but made up so I am on entry..(finding) 8, 3.85k words and 10 pages! Pls tell me when you publish ur novel because I would love to read it! I'm sure it is amazing. I wish you the best of luck and have an amazing day! Also Linda, do you have a YT because I would love to sub 2 u! Gratitude always, Maddie
Could I maybe ask what app you’re using? I want to write as well actually and I’ve got some really good ideas. So.. I was just wondering if I could use this app to make it more organised for everything. I love your characters and I hope your book gets a whole lot of recognition because you’re writing skills are incredible! :)
aww thank you! i am so glad you found my channel! i use google docs for my writing software and artbreeder to create my characters! its so good working online (using Google Docs/Google Drive) because everything saves real-time, online so i can access it everywhere (like on my phone when i'm out!) its so awesome you have ideas! please write them down!! xx keep me updated, lovlie.
@@ananeu you’re most welcome and I’m glad I found you’re channel too! wouldn’t have known most of this without a binge watch throughout all of your videos 😂😭
@@ananeu It's ok, we're literally on the other side of the world from each other. Maybe one day I'll visit Australia tho cause it seems rlly cool there, especially all the nature
i watched this while thinking of the characters for a new project i am going to start. The character template you used, do you maybe have a direct link to it? ^^
Hi again. Thanks for making this vlog, it was insightful, I do try to write by hand some of my characters appearance. But not fully in depth, which I think that I need to do so. But do you have a app to do character profile for a Tablet that works awesome? And, which site did you create your characters on? Reason for me asking is because all my things that I needed to use to build up my info was on my laptop, but unfortunately, it crashed last year. So now I am using a Tablet, and trying to figure out what good app's to use to redo everything again. And love your computer screen and light up keyboard, which I need to find a Bluetooth wireless keyboard for my tablet that light up keyboard to use when I have room lights off during the hot days, since it is summer time here in my country (south Africa, western cape).
haha it’s summer here too I’m Australia - it gets so so hot!! but I recommend using the online writing software called Google Docs. u can use your gmail/email account to sign in! (as for how I created the photo - I used art breeder❤️) sorry to hear about ur laptop :( but using google docs will help ur documents be saved online, so if anything were to happen, you’d have it on the cloud. hope this helped! xx
If you don’t mind me asking: I see on your google docs you’ve got a yellow-y tint in some places - how did you get that? I think it looks quite nice :)
OMG what app did you use to make that template with all the different tabs for your characters?! I love this template so much, this would be amazing to use to help write down my characters! Is it in Google Docs?
@@lxiaaane2 Ok I found it out! She uses google docs, and to creat the tabs with all the different characters she uses headers in the format option, I couldn’t find the template so I just used hers as a reference and made one similar, that should help you!
I ana! I have 1 question... I might have missed this in the video or Im just being stupid but could I know the font? Its really pretty! I luv ur vids:)
Kinda like how I always have my main character Calum have sholderless tops and a corset or with my other main character Lilith always have her hair in a bun
love your videos a lot Ana, it helped me create the characters for my book, I just had a question how did you get that symbol. I want to give my character one too
ana please reply, I really need my character to have this specific symbol as characters in my book actually belong to different social groups in the society according to hierarchy. . you usually just like the comment and leave. please tell me how to get it I have been looking for something like this since the past few weeks. love ☺
Lmao i would join ur lives bc i love ur vids they r super cute and inspirational but i just googled it and in my time zone ur lives r literally at 3am lmao
May sound like a stupid question but what website are you using in this video?? I may have missed it in the video or in your subscription but I can’t find the name so I thought I’d just ask😅
I love it so much!! but I think you forgot the character misbeliefs, fears, and desires. Their internal conflict why it matters to them and not just a punching bag to the plot. But anyway, thanks for the character profile idea.
I know I'm late but I have 4 characters that had there memories erased for their protection and I don't know how to develop characters that don't know or remember anything and I'm trying but I always get stuck
look where i got i'm watching a video of a girl who dies in australia practically on the other side of the world ( i live in brazil and yes there is internet and energy here ) just to create some characters
I Love how you made delle a demigod.
Yess I'm pretty obsessed with Percy Jackson right now, and that is just AMAZHANG
@@stormiiskii You mean Amazhang
@@SanviJha-d4x omg how could I have forgotten smhh
@@stormiiskii It's ok. We love Frank tho
Being an artist and a writer at the same time is very beneficial. Instead of using an app to create characters I just draw them🤷♀️
I agree, however Im more of a costume/clothing designer so I make use of Artbreeder for the Character, but Design the outfits myself
Same, and if I ever publish a book, I can illustrate the front cover.
@@Catcatboyboy yes! I'm thinking about doing the same thing
Same here
Same! I illustrate my books!
Not only australian, but also knows what theyre talking about. This is by far the best writing channel ive found so far.
🤍🤍
I don't write books / (fanfiction or anything in general) but I DO create characters for my own entertainment, and struggle getting inspo or idea's. So thanks for this!
I like how you write characters! Honestly, characters are super important in any storyline so I am happy to see that you made an entire video dedicated to just that. Delle looks really awesome and I like the fantasy in it + the art. Very well executed. Wishing you luck on that project!
aw tysm! i totally agree with you - i love making characters! its my fav part of the planning process! i wish u the best too!
I been needing tips for writing characters! For one of my projects I been wanting to write different characters with different POVs! Your planning for your characters seem so organized! Weekly write with me sounds amazing!
Your glasses look great btw ✨✨
awww ur comment has made my dayyy!! thank u so so much! I’m so glad I was even a little bit of help. and I’m so excited to write with all of u this week! and yes - you totally should try and write multi pov’s is so fun!! love u xx
haha just found you, but this was very helpful!
I want to make a heart-wrenching book where the pages will be stained by the tears of the reader. As soon as someone gets attached to a good character they will get killed off in the most disgusting horrifying way possible.
Even though it will be a sad book it's also going to be very heartfelt and have its happy and funny moments, I love sob stories where the main characters and just kids who need help from the adults and they never get the help they need and slowly grow into a family that's been stitched together by the circumstances of what the adults and gods have put them into 😉
Thanks for showing this site! It's really accurate for wanting to know what your character looks like and it's fun making them come to life! Also a few things I discovered is, if you go to expressions,mouth closed makes the character lighter,mouth open makes the character darker and angry makes the character's face smaller but also serious at the same time.
Where is the page? I can't find it 😩😩😩
The way you write your characters is beautiful! I struggle with writing characters and creating profiles, so this helped with both making characters for a book and characters in general! Also, I need that keyboard 😅
I have watched so many different youtubers who talk about character creating. And I can proudly admit that you are my number one favourite! Your videos give off good vibe and makes me feel like I can actually success with my dream of writing a book someday
I subscribed without a glimpse of hesitation!! I’m a french guy and I’m planning on just going to the UK after I graduate, go to oxford, and write books in english ofc 😼💪
I’m honestly a good writer but I’ve NEVER wrote in an other language before! I’m bilingual but there is such a huuuge different between knowing a language and being able to make it lyric
anyways can’t wait to write my book and become a famous english writer 👨🔧👨🔧
Im so excited for the weekly writing sprints! Literally watching this video as I make profiles yay😁
I love Delle! My character is a lot like her :) I also enjoy adding funny/ironic things into their profiles. My character, Nevaeh, is really good at swimming but is terrified of deep water
haha thats so awesome! quirks and phobias make a character so fun!
My character is great at combat and fighting dragons but is terrified of blood
Your character is like me irl.
@erika.
@@sweettooth5766 same lowkey, mine is a nurse who's really good at fighting but hates blood.
me, an artist AND a writer: *my knowledge is beyond your understanding*
Another tip for writing characters is to think what they’re dreams are/were, what their motivation for doing what they are doing is
Thank you for teaching me a little about how to organize your character lists, and design the characters. I made my own list but it wasn't as organized, I didn't think to add 'strengths' and 'weaknesses' thank you for helping me create better! You have a lot of intelligence and talent.

Good job on the video. And yes it is very important to flesh out your characters even though everything might not make it into the book.
EXACTLY! such a good point!
i love learning something like this because i'm a new writer and your videos help me so much! i hope i can publish my book :")
Wow you definitely gave ur channel and yourself a glow up
I'm a new sub and your views have helped me get excited to create. I've been using notion and it has been really fun using it to brainstorm
aw that's so beautiful to hear! i am so glad xx ur literally too sweet!! i hope you have a beautiful day!!
Just saw this while I'm writing my story. This broke down a lot of the things I've been having troubles with, thank you so much for this❤️
Is there the link to the template?
I was wondering of you had a link or some way to use the character building template, if not, it's fine
Thank you for making this video, I had an idea for a character for months now, but I didn't know how to write all the stuff down, this helped me soooo much! ❤️
Your illustration of Delle looks just like how I’d imagine myself if I was perfect 😂
Great video! I would love to see you break down an existing character from a movie or book this way
Oo that would be so cool!! 🤍
This one helped me as well 🎉❤
1:26 Where do you write your characters? is ti word or a website? it looks very helpful
