This weeks quick challenge - create a Character

I will be reviewing some of the submissions for last weeks writing challenge and I will add them as I get time. I promise to do my best. 

This weeks writing test is to create a character. 

Yes fun stuff right?

Well not for all of us. sometimes coming up with that unique character seems real hard work. So here is a great chance for you to get practising. 

Create your character using the following info. 


  • Give it a name
  • Age, Gender, location, race (breed even), nationality
  • what they look like, brown hair, eyes, skin color, slim, athletic, average, etc
  • create a brief background - job, where they grew up, nationality, culture, roots, religion, 
  • family - siblings, parents, grandparents, are they close to them?
  • Do they have pets? Are they modern, traditional, contemporary?
  • Create a drama, something that has brought them to where they are now
  • And possibly, google a picture, find something that may be similar to this character or draw your own
So get going, your character profile doesn't have to be in-depth  it can be very brief, enough to give us an idea of who she, he or it is. 

send in your submissions if you like or share it by blogging in your own blog and send us your links. 
or you can find and comment us on facebook or twitter. 



ok enjoy and get cracking..
