I didn't die, I'm just not doing nano so I'm kinda feeling out of place atm
What resources do you use to make sure your characters are well-developed?
I tend to look at the characters I love, and take aspects from how they're written to improve my own characters. Though, given that a lot of my favourite characters are white males, it doesn't really apply to Femie all that much. Something that has had a huge influence on Femie is actually Orange Is The New Black, because I've learned a lot about Hispanic culture from the girls in that show which is really helping for Femie's backstory. I also did a GCSE in Spanish, in which I got an A, so that's helping a lot with the cultural and linguistic aspects of her, in that I remember a fair amount of Spanish so I can kinda sprinkle it into the dialogue if there is any, though it'll mainly be the exclamations like "madre mio!" or I can also say son of a b- (love CS rules) in Spanish thanks to the movie Pan's Labyrinth. Other than that, my resources are mainly websites where I google all the questions I need (like how to spell Quinceañera). That's about it really.
Also, if anyone's interested I just published a new poem in my compilation on wattpad, feel free to read it if you want, it's just a vent really so it's not particularly happy.
