Character Development Secrets
- 7 Steps to Developing Real People - Part 1
by Writers of the Round Table, Inc
Part One: Desire and Fear
Creating convincing characters that are believable takes time and
discipline. Creating dynamically real individuals without imposing
your own thoughts and impressions upon them is not easy to do, but
this step is often the difference between a novel or screenplay
that sits in a closet and one that finds its way around town and
into the hands of audiences. Spend time with character development
- building your characters before they enter the world of your story
- and you turn the process of writing your manuscript into an easier
and more enjoyable ride. You also get the added reward of a finished
product that agents, publishers, producers and readers can truly
be excited by.
