If you are reading this, you are probably interested in writing, and if you are interested in writing, you are probably interested in reading. I think this is a safe assumption to make, because every writer I have met has started off as a reader. And, in fact, reading is a prerequisite to writing. You may have someone who can read but cannot write, but you do not have anyone who can write but not read. It just doesn't work that way. Since you are a reader, you have likely run into characters who you love. Some of my favorite literary characters are Robinson Crusoe, Frodo Baggins, anything created by Dr. Suess, and any character from American tall tales. So many characters have been created, and so many characters have captured the hearts of readers for generations. One of the reasons this is the case is because we went along on a journey with these characters. We saw as they started out weak and grew strong or started out as good people and turned bad. But this change in the characters did not happen for no reason. This episode is about how you should take time developing your characters through your story. It isn't something you can just make happen.My Book: https://amzn.to/37ZPaCXMy Newsletter:https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/a1r2k2My Other Episodes on How I Approach Characters:https://www.spreaker.com/episode/32309239https://www.spreaker.com/episode/32313979https://www.spreaker.com/episode/32320666My Website:www.danielpoppie.com HTWG Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/howtowritegoodHTWG Twitter: https://twitter.com/danielpoppieHTWG Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/howtowritegoodOne Last Toast for Ebenezer Fleet:https://www.spreaker.com/show/one-last-toast-for-ebenezer-fleet
