More on Character Diaries

I’ve been struggling a little with one of my characters for a novel. The novel was originally written several years ago. In those years I’ve gained more experience, so I’ve recently been looking it over for improvements. One thing I see now is how little character my main character actually has. Although I’d never have admitted it when I completed the novel, I suppose this is something that has always bothered me about this particular novel.

So, I’ve decided to begin a character diary for this main character. I’m hoping that by getting right inside this person’s skin I can see where I’m going wrong with her development. My plan is to use Noah Lukeman’s The Plot Thickens to really get the details down on my character.

I’ll let you know how it all goes later in the year.
