Learning Writing with Developmental Editor Rob Bignell (Experts on Writing)

In this episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing developmental editor Rob Bignell, owner of Inventing Reality Editing and author of the Story Telling 101 series. Rob has been a guest on our show three times before, and I personally adore his quick reads, often turning to them for a refresh on key writing topics.

Today, we dive into his book on character development, exploring essential aspects of creating compelling characters. Rob shares his insights on:

Different types of characters and their contributions to the narrative
Key elements in creating a character’s background
How values shape character decisions and interactions
Techniques for developing relatable and engaging personalities
Giving characters a distinctive voice
Naming characters within the story's context
Making characters interesting and memorable
Ensuring characters are three-dimensional
Constructing compelling main characters
Showing character growth and development
Avoiding common pitfalls in character development
