I've always loved fiction, but I never deeply thought about what is a fictional character and how they are created. After reading a detailed blog on Self Publishing Guides, I finally understood what makes a character feel alive.

The insights on building believable and relatable characters were fascinating. I feel like I’ll appreciate my favorite books even more now! If you love fiction or want to write, you’ll love this blog.

@morgan-broadhead Haha, fair point! 😆 Writers of the Future definitely isn't short on passionate storytellers! I guess fiction is kind of the whole deal here, huh? 😂
