Character Glow-Up
7 Days to Main-Character Energy
If your “main character” still feels more aesthetic than actual person, this week is your fix. Seven short emails, seven creative hits, and one character who finally shows up like they mean it.
What You’re Getting Yourself Into
So, here’s the plan.
You’ll deep-dive into your character’s inner workings—the messy patterns, the quiet heartbreaks, the dramatic flourishes, the questionable choices they’d definitely deny in public.
You’ll catch them in their unscripted moments:
the childhood memory they insist “isn’t a big deal,”
the desire they pretend is purely hypothetical,
the flaw they trip over like it’s not sitting in the middle of the hallway,
the spark that fires every time trouble’s about to start.
By the end, you’ll have a character who reads like you’ve known them for years—the kind who keeps interrupting your life with new ideas while you’re just trying to drink your coffee like a normal person.
Your Character Is About to Get Real.
When your character finally clicks? Everything else does, too.
Those half-formed vibes? The random notes app chaos? The “why do I know this person better than my coworkers” energy? That’s the good stuff—the spark that turns into scenes, arcs, and genuinely unhinged creative momentum.
This Story Session helps you shape all of it into something you can actually write with — a character who behaves, misbehaves, and drags your story forward, whether you planned it or not.
