Stop Losing Beta Readers to Characters They Can’t Tell Apart

Develop characters your readers will remember — in 30 minutes or less.

You can write great thriller novels. But not if you’re spinning your wheels on your story or wondering why your beta readers keep mixing up your characters.

My Story

When I wrote my first novel, Toy of the Gods, my beta readers had two complaints: they didn’t like my main character, and they couldn’t tell half my characters apart.

That was a wake-up call. I went back to the drawing board on how I created characters from the ground up — and out of that came the worksheet I’m sharing with you today. Rewriting my novel with better characters led to a best-selling book.

What Other Writers Are Saying

“I learned so much about my newest heroine from using the character development worksheet. It’s a great way to gain the confidence to write freely that comes from knowing your main characters inside and out — it even helped me decide whether someone was a main character at all.”

— A.K. Weller, author of Enemy Closer
