About this ebook
Have you ever wondered what it takes to craft extraordinary characters?
The truth is that in every sensational story is an extraordinary character (or, even better, more than one). These types of characters do much more than just advance the plot. They jump off of the page and grip the heart of the reader.
The Epic Guide to Character Creation: Mentors is a short ebook packed with information on how to create extraordinary mentors. The book goes through how to categorize your characters as well as shed light on the most common archetypes, which you can use as a solid foundation to build your mentors upon.
This book is part of The Busy Author’s Guide series, a series of short ebooks meant for writers who don’t have time to wade through yet another full-length book when they should be writing.
The Busy Author’s Guide series will provide you with bite-sized help, inspiration, tips, and creative exercises because small steps are easier to tackle than giant leaps.
Includes a free download: Character Appearance Workbook
Kylie Day
Kylie Day is a lover of books and stories, an avid reader, and a passionate writer. Last time she counted the books in her bookshelves, she had over five hundred of them (the digital library was too extensive to count). While physical books feel magical in her hands — and smell even more magical — she prefers to buy ebooks because she doesn’t have any room for more bookshelves. If she had the money she would buy a library, just to fill it with amazing books.Her love for books is why she, as of the spring of 2015, has a BA in literature. She could never see her life progressing in any other way since that first time she picked up a book and read it with fervor as well as stuck her nose in it just to smell the magic on the pages.Now Kylie is chasing her childhood dream of becoming an author. The Busy Author’s Guide-series is a series of short ebooks that is meant to help others with the same dream.
