Synopsis

What will take your fiction from good to great? From decent to dazzling? From lackluster to blockbuster?

Characters who "jump off the page."

Of course plot matters. So does conflict, and scenes, and every other aspect of the fiction craft. But without unforgettable characters, your books will always be less than they could be.

Don't let that happen.

In WRITING UNFORGETTABLE CHARACTERS you'll learn:

•How to lay the foundation for a memorable character

•How to bond the reader with the main character from the start

•The super power of unpredictability

•The secrets of grit, wit, and moxie

•How to bring your character to life on the page•How and when to reveal backstory

•All about arcs and what they truly mean

•The key to unforgettable villains•How to make minor characters memorable, too

•How to create a great series character

And more, PLUS the powerful exercises James Scott Bell has taught in his sold-out writing workshops. No more flat stories! Give your readers what will turn them into career-long fans—characters who jump off the page.
