The Secret to Writing Believable Characters

If you’ve ever been told your characters just “don’t feel realistic,” then you already know the importance of character arcs. Believable stories hinge on a lot of things, but one of the biggest is their cast. In order to grab your readers’ attention, your cast needs to be packed with dynamic people who change as your novel unfolds.

That’s where Mastering Character Arcs can help:

• Learn how to spark realistic transformations for your cast,
• Explore the two types of character arcs your cast could follow,
• Experiment with nearly seventy-two unique character combinations,
• And expand your novel with dozens of supporting archetypes.

Instead of struggling to create these character arcs on your own, this book will provide the perfect blueprint for understanding the many journeys your cast could go on. From basic stories of growth or decay, to specialized quests like redemption and coming of age, arcs are the tool you need to make their stories real.

By the time we’re done, you’ll be writing vibrant characters your readers will adore!
