Breathing Life into Characters: A Creator's Diary

Characters are the heart of any novel. They are more than just names on a page; they are a composite of dreams, flaws, and motivations that drive the narrative forward. In this post, I'll share my approach to character development, from initial sketches to the intricate process of giving them a unique voice and a compelling arc. It’s a journey of empathy and imagination, as I explore their deepest fears and greatest triumphs to make them feel real to both me and my readers.
