About the Course
Characters are the driving force behind story. Indelible, passionate single-minded characters allow audiences to see themselves not just as they are but as who they might be at their heroic or anti-heroic best. Crafting characters of this caliber and placing them in high wire do or die situations sells stories across genres and platforms and can help put the writer on the map. How can we write CHARACTERS so as to exploit their full potential?
