-So, I had a very clear image of this character as I began to write my book, but it’s been hard to really capture how I imagine her in my head in my writing, you know? I might be describing this completely wrong. Like I can’t get my idea of her out. I feel like she might be what I call a ‘shallow’ character, like when there isn’t a lot of interesting aspects or real human emotions and experiences in a character.

Please ask questions about the character in the comments if you can! It would help me a lot to develop her further! Thxxx! ♥️
