How key Archetypes, both Male and Female form the foundation for complex, 3-dimensional characters that grab your readers and hold them from page one to the end of your story.
We will look at 11 Key Male and 9 Female Archetypes, what they are and how they underpin your characters. Those characters are complex, often evolving from one Archetype to another or are conflicted by overlapping Archetypes.
We’ll also look at how Archetypes interact, or clash. After all, conflict is the heart of any story! If you are struggling with characters that feel shallow or undeveloped, Archetypes are your key to a richer, more compelling story.
