Excerpt from The Art of Inventing Characters And we are duly punished. Note, in brief, this principle, which we shall verify more than once in the course of the book; poverty of subdivision of a general type brings about a poverty rigorously proportionate in the elements which in turn com pose each individual type.

The 369 unused types which we have discovered in the course of this classification represent unexplored regions in the soul of each one of us. Opening these regions in the individual as in Humanity, we complete the geography of the Soul. We maintain nevertheless, like parallels of latitude and longitude, its Duodenary Proportions. These we have found in all life, in everything which, like ourselves, is Rhythm. We see them everywhere in art and in poetry: epic (Song of Izdhubal, Homeric Poems, �neid, etc.) or tragic (in China, Rome, France, etc.) of all ages, in the cadences of all known verse-forms, - as well as in the movements of history (comparative heredity, law of four-century periods) and in theogonies.

Former private investigator and New York Times notable author David Corbett offers a unique and indispensable toolkit for creating characters that come vividly to life on the page and linger in memory. Corbett provides an inventive, inspiring, and vastly entertaining blueprint to all the elements of characterization-from initial inspiration to realization-with special insights into the power of secrets and contradictions, the embodiment of roles, managing the "tyranny of motive," and mastering crucial techniques required for memorable dialogue and unforgettable scenes. This is a how-to guide for both aspiring and accomplished writers that renders all other books of its kind obsolete.

Vivid and memorable characters aren't born: they have to be made. &break;&break;This book is a set of tools: literary crowbars, chisels, mallets, pliers and tongs. Use them to pry, chip, yank and sift good characters out of the place where they live in your memory, your imagination and your soul. &break;&break;Award-winning author Orson Scott Card explains in depth the techniques of inventing, developing and presenting characters, plus handling viewpoint in novels and short stories. With specific examples, he spells out your narrative options–the choices you'll make in creating fictional people so "real" that readers will feel they know them like members of their own families. &break;&break;You'll learn how to: &break; draw the characters from a variety of sources, including a story's basic idea, real life–even a character's social circumstances&break; make characters show who they are by the things they do and say, and by their individual "style"&break; develop characters readers will love–or love to hate&break; distinguish among major characters, minor characters and walk-ons, and develop each one appropriately&break; choose the most effective viewpoint to reveal the characters and move the storytelling&break; decide how deeply you should explore your characters' thoughts, emotions and attitudes
