Unleash Your Storytelling Superpower
Tuesday, May 20th at 1:00pm ET
This session will help you identify your Storytelling Superpower—that “secret sauce” only you can bring to your writing—and it begins with choosing the right character as the center of your story. I’m Gabriela Pereira, instigator and founder of DIY MFA, and I will walk you through a framework of character archetypes that will help you develop a memorable and engaging protagonist.
In this online session, I will…
- Explain the primary protagonist archetypes, what they are and how they operate.
- Help you identify the right character archetype for your story, so you can build in the potential for growth from the beginning.
- Show you how to use that character to build a connection with your readers and keep them turning pages.
- Discuss how archetypes shift throughout the story, so you can create a believable narrative where your character grows and changes.
- Walk through examples of the different archetypes in action, so you can understand how to apply the framework to your own writing.
You’ll leave this session with the tools and techniques you need so you can craft a compelling protagonist that truly resonates with readers.
