While character development is arguably one of the most enjoyable parts of writing a novel, it can also be the most challenging part to get right.
After all, your job is to transform black words on a white page into three-dimensional characters readers remember for years to come.
Don’t let the magnitude of this task overwhelm you, though. Just a few of the many points we cover are how to:
#1 - Understand their full background
#2 - Know strengths and weaknesses
#3 - Create weird habits
#4 - Realize perfect characters don’t exist
#5 - Give them realistic motives
A reader’s investment in your story is largely influenced by the realism of your characters. Therefore, interesting, three-dimensional protagonists and villains are a must.
In this video, you learn how to develop lifelike characters that fit your story and bring life to its pages!
