Create Heroes Your Readers Will Never Forget

Want to keep your readers' hooked? Center your story on a dynamic protagonist your readers can relate to, but also can't predict.

Subscribe to the email series where we'll explore one crucial, but sometimes underdeveloped, component for crafting unforgettable heroes: their minds.

Specifically, we'll examine these topics:

  • What memorable protagonists have that forgettable ones don’t
  • The secret ingredient behind every irresistible action hero and mystery sleuth
  • How flawed heroes with the power to suck readers into a story are born
  • The two things you need to keep readers hooked on your protagonist’s growth (or downfall)
  • What makes the inner worlds of the heroes from 3 popular novels (The Hunger Games, Gone Girl, and the romcom Boyfriend Material) so compelling
  • How Suzanne Collins, Gillian Flynn, and Alexis Hall used their heroes' inner lives to bring readers to their knees (and how you can too)
