Each week two hero archetypes will be dissected and then put back together accroding to their back-stories, and positive and negative qualities and personal styles. Each student will be required to create an individual hero each week, so that at the end of the course, they will have four unique male archetypes. Instructor Caro LaFever.

Writers have a secret weapon in characterization.
Extensive textual instruction material included at no additional cost. This class will teach the writer how to create a simple 15-word outline that will reveal exactly where the story needs to begin. As well as eliminates drawers stuffed to the brimwith half-finished stories. We will learn not only where to begin a story, but how to write that first scene that will make an editor or reader sit up and take notice. Once you can get an editor to do that, the rest is easy.
