Who is your main character? What motivates them? How did they get that scar? We'll ask these and other character development questions as we explore archetypes to learn what's typical... and then how to break the rules! Conjure believable yet interesting characters and come away with a slew of new people (or animals, or aliens, or…) to populate your writing.
