Creating Extraordinary Characters: a simple, practical approach to creating unforgettable characters (Writing Lessons from the Front)

Scarlett O’Hara, Anne Shirley, Wilbur the pig, Katniss Everdeen. Why do we love these characters? Why do we remember them long after we’ve forgotten the details of their stories? In this second book in the Writing Lessons from the Front series, Angela Hunt explains how you can create unforgettable characters that will bring your fiction to life. These lessons, Hunt says, “are brief for a reason—I don’t want you to spend most of your time reading how-to books. I will give you what you need so you can put what you’ve learned into practice. That’s the best way to improve.” Enjoy this writing lesson for a fraction of the cost of attending one of Angela’s writing classes–your writing will never be the same.
