You’re literally a psychic😭 I was searching up “how to craft good characters” then 10 minutes later you posted this omgg

[@JiJi_Draws]

Literally! I'm working on my characters right now and I needed some help and she posted this!

[@jaylovesart08]

Heyy Girl! I'm 15 years old and I'm planning on writing a book and I absolutely adore your videos! They are so inspiring and helpful and I just want to thank you for making them especially since it's nice to see a fellow black woman be so dedicated to writing. :)

[@sincerelyvee]

you're so welcome :))

[@rhens8088]

I think creating characters, their backstories and their development is honestly my forte

[@kelseys_basement]

I literally did a little dance when I got the notification that you uploaded. I found your channel recently and I'm already obsessed. I LOVE seeing girls close to my age doing things that I enjoy. You inspire me SO much. I love your videos! ❤

[@sincerelyvee]

[@skylarjadequinn]

Omg I have been struggling hardcore with developing the characters in my new novel because I've been so focused on the plot this video could literally not have come at a better time lol

[@blessingmamabolo1682]

Omg, hiii. As a fantasy writer, world building and character building is one of my favorite tasks actually. 🥰🥰

[@LisaJOasis]

Hey Vee, I’m not sure if you’ve already done a video about this but could you do a tour of how to use scrivener, or how you use it from your perspective? I currently use word or google docs and I’m a little more intimidated using scrivener as I am as far in my writing.

[@sincerelyvee]

i’ve been meaning to film this! bumping it up on my list😉

[@LisaJOasis]

@@sincerelyveethank you so much, I’m hoping that it can help organize me as my wrist hasn’t come along very much😅

[@Jess-sf4ri]

Hi Vee! I was just wondering what website you use to make the visual rep of your characters (the image of Eva I mean) I've tried searching it up and I've not found it
💚💚💚💚

[@sincerelyvee]

the website’s called artbreeder! let me know if you find it

[@Jess-sf4ri]

@@sincerelyvee Thank you! I was able to find it!

[@keaunalysm.]

Hi vee! I was wondering what platform you use to create the covers for your WIP?

[@sincerelyvee]
