Compelling Characters Are At the Heart of Every Great Manuscript

You Can Learn How to Craft Believable and Dynamic Protaganists and I’m Going to Show You How!

You’ll walk away from this workshop knowing how

to . . .

  • Go Beyond the Surface: Understand what truly drives your characters (and how to reveal it without telling).

  • Uncover the Two Categories of Core Motivations: Define your characters' deep desires, hidden wounds, and the 'lie' they believe that shapes their journey.

  • Master the Art of Showing: Learn practical techniques to reveal personality through powerful action, authentic dialogue, and impactful internal thoughts.

  • Avoid Common Pitfalls: Identify and fix the mistakes that make characters feel flat or generic.

  • Create Engaging Arcs: Get a clearer vision for how your characters will grow and change throughout your story.

You have a great plot idea, a fascinating world, or a powerful message. But if your characters don't leap off the page, your readers won’t stick around.

Do you ever feel like your protagonists are . . .

  • A bit one-dimensional?

  • Inconsistent or unbelievable?

  • Struggling to drive the plot forward?

  • Not quite connecting with your readers?

You're not alone! Crafting characters that feel real, flawed, and utterly compelling is one of the biggest challenges for writers. But it doesn't have to be.
