I am starting a 5 part series dedicated to Characters and what we love about them. I hope to offer some assistance to writers who are devoting time to the mechanics of their writing. Think about the last book or story you read. What made that character memorable to you? As an aspiring historical fiction novelist and avid reader of the genre, the writing of the character is what differentiates a world I can become absorbed in versus a plain historical textbook.
The reference books I will be using for this series are:
Crafting Unforgettable Charafters by K.M. Weiland (sign up for her newsletter and get this nifty booklet for FREE)
and of course, the great seven part series by Larry Brooks. I can’t wait to introduce you, the faithful blog reader to not only my characters, but those of some of my favorite writers.
Tell me, dear writers and readers, who is your favorite character and name the traits that endeared them to you!
