Characters

After I know my story's setting, I need a cast of characters. As I write and get to know each one, I ask myself: What does this character want or fear more than anything? That helps me to develop the character's storyline. I call this //character motivation//. As you think about each of the characters listed below, ask yourself that question. Remember that what a character wants more than anything may change or evolve as the story progresses. Choose one character from the list below and follow their development through the book. How do they change from beginning to end? What are their flaws? What are their strengths? How do their characters dictate or influence the action in the story?
