This is a Character Questionnaire that I've personally put together for Writers and aspiring Writers. I created this in hopes of helping writers develop their characters faster, and simpler. Personally, I've used questionnaires myself like these for help when creating my Novel and its characters. I found these questionnaires to be very helpful and convenient. I hope you will too. I specifically made this one of my liking because I noticed that other Character Questionnaires asks you a lot of unnecessary questions that's really not needed. Therefore, this one is more basic and is not detailed. For a more detailed one, please request to me for one, or, you can go online too. Whatever is more comfortable and convenient for you.

This questionnaire consists of approximately (67) questions. I've also used help of another Character Questionnaire ( http://www.writerswrite.com/journal/jun98/how-to-create-a-character-profile-6986 ) to create this, but like I said, I found a lot of questions that was not needed, and so I've took out some and added some of my own.

I personally like the questionnaires that has 300+ questions, but I know some of you may not be into answering all those questions, so I made this one short. It takes time and patience, but it's worth it in the end. I would love to know if you used this Questionnaire for your characters, so comment and let me know if you did and if you found it helpful. I'd really appreciate it!
