There's a trick to writing fantastic characters. There is more to character development than knowing how they like their eggs cooked, it is about the character arcs, their wants and needs, essentially, it all boils down to character motivation. What drives them forward is what drives the plot forward and keeps readers engaged. If you want to improve the characters in your story, join me, Kammi Lutz and my wonderful co-host Holly Hanson for an in-depth workshop on characters. We will be live Saturday, Dec 12, 2020, and then the stream will be left up for anyone who can't make it for the livestream or wants to take a second look at their characters.
