Believable Characters Laurie Schnebly

Writers are always looking for new ways to create believable characters, and one great tool is enneagrams -- a system used by managers and counselors to identify the nine personality types. Each type has its own wonderfully heroic traits, and each one also has a fatal (or not-so-fatal) flaw that will bring these characters into conflict with other people...and with themselves. See why Linda Lael Miller called this 250-page book "a must-have for all writers who want to create deep, well-rounded, flesh-and-blood characters."
