Everyone tends to disclose their deepest, darkest secrets at slumber parties, so why would your characters be any different?
      In this activity, write a short story of what happens when you invite your characters over for a slumber party. It doesn't have to be great literature. The purpose of this activity is to learn more about your characters! Some questions you can ask them include:

1. Who's your crush (either real of celebrity)?
2. What's the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you?
3. What type of ice cream do you like (find out about their likes and dislikes)?
4. What do you want more than anything?
5. What's your favorite movie?
6. Do you have any enemies?
7. How do you react in scary situations?
8. Who are the members of your family?
9. What do you carry in your purse, purse, backpack, pockets etc? 
10. Do you have any pets?
11. What will happen if you don't achieve the goal you are working towards in the story?

At the end, you should know a lot more about your character and be able to write more in depth details about your character's life.

Hey guys
M told me I should give some feedback about this website so here goes
1. I love it. It helped me find more about my characters.
2. I had a little trouble coming up with really random questions. Could you please post some more questions that we could use.
3. I didn't like question 3 that much. Maybe its just for my story but Question 3 didn't seem that helpful a question.
Hope you like the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! Question 3 is mostly about asking your character questions to get to know their likes and dislikes. I'll post some more questions you can ask.
