Writing coach: Perfect characters are imperfect

March 4, 2019 by Jeffrey Bruner

The most compelling characters, whether they’re heroes or villains, are those with multiple facets to their personality.

Black discusses her journey to writing how-to guides on characters on Joanna Penn’s podcast and also shares a few lessons from them.

You can read their interview or listen to it on The Creative Penn.
