How to Create Character Profiles with Hero Archetypes

In this video, I'm going to teach you how to create character profiles with a little-known technique: hero archetypes.

I review the bestselling book, Heroes & Heroines and Fallen Heroes by Tami Cowden, Caro Lafever, and Sue Viders. This book poses a crazy unique idea—that every character in your book has an “archetype” that guides who they are and what they stand for. Even villains have archetypes! Once you know what they are, you’ll be dangerous.
I’ve used this to GREAT effect in my 30+ novels, so I’m going to dive into the concept and show you some practical ways to use it.
