Get my free Character Profile Training!

Another great way to beat the tropes is to have round, relatable, and realistic characters. In under 15 minutes, this training will teach you how you should actually look at the character profile, and what to do with the information in it when it’s complete.

How does the information in the profile translate to the story you’re writing? Why do we need to know everything about our characters’ lives? And how does this tool help us write better stories?

If you’ve got less than 15 minutes, I’ve got the answers. Let me send this training to you!

Buy me a Chai?

I don’t drink coffee, but if you’re enjoying the blog posts I write, consider buying me a tea instead. All tips are greatly appreciated and allow me to continue bringing you free resources so you can be the best writer possible.
