Actually, enemies can have good chemistry too, because it's about bring interesting parts of each other to the light and having a fun dinamic, even while hating each other. But, yeah, enimies can have bad chemistry too, but that's not as fun.

Tips on writing mentally diverse characters? Or anything else about writing diverse characters without just adding lgbt characters and being like BAM DIVERSITY

Frenchie Animinis I’d say do your research, and not just straight up facts and statistics, like first hand accounts of what it’s like living with that mental illness/condition day to day. My character Ruby, for example, has schizophrenia. I’ve done my research and since it runs in my family I’ve seen what it’s like up close, not just by reading something about the symptoms on webMD or whatever.

how do you write an interesting background character that doesn't steal the spotlight too much?
@dengosodawg

Lois Sheppard you could be a little vague? If a character’s background is more mysterious they’re intriguing and people want to know more, plus they won’t take up much space with background which will probably imply that they aren’t SUPER significant to the plot but they may still be a main character.

Cambion Kaaera that’s a really cool idea! Like if someone is fighting for a cause that they don’t believe in they could eventually be swayed to the other side. Interesting!

This video was very helpful because the comic I'm writing is completely secret based, every character has some secret that ends up being revealed

Also I have question that isn't really about characters but I still wanted to ask : How to you make stories involving travel more interesting? Because I always struggle to fill in the gaps when my characters are traveling from one town to another. Now I could just cut out the travel segments but then I fear that the reader has no sense of how much time actually passed between the events.

I know this is an old(ish) comment, and you may well have found your answer by now, but those down-time sorts of scenes can be really good. Your characters can have conversations revealing small things about them and their world view, or simply spend time looking at the scenery. Its a great place to establish character traits and relationships in a very non-drama setting. Just dont overdo it, if theres a lot of action in your story already this is a great way to calm things down, if things have been calm for a while now, make it brief, maybe a wide shot of whatever mode of transport your character uses in the environment, or of your character reading a book in their vehicle (if they even have one). There are tons of possibilities. I think I may have gone on a tangent here, whoops!

How do I write good interaction scenes between two characters? And how do I best establish a character through these scenes? It's very important to me that my readers get to know the main character by the way he interacts with his travel companion but I am having a hard time writing interaction scenes that actually have an importance to the plot. Especially because my main character likes to keep to himself.
