About this Gig
*Please contact me prior to submitting an order for scheduling*
Even the most well-plotted work can be derailed by flat characters. I offer professional guidance to help writers navigate the most challenging aspects of character development. My packet will explore your characters from new angles and build on the inspirations at the heart of your story to bring new depth to your work.
Each package offers:
A. A deep dive character analysis drawn from summary information you submit. I'll address your concerns and offer a range of suggestions for:
1. In-world realistic physical attributes
2. Backstory details which inform the present
3. Temperament, habits, and quirks
4. Likes, dislikes, pet-peeves & guilty pleasures
6. Internal & external core conflicts, driving desires & fears
B. Character Arc & Interaction Sheet
I'll look at how each character functions within the plot and analyze the best path to a satisfying arc while staying true to story logic. I'll explore how they interact with others and offer suggestions to get the most out of every sequence. I'll break down their relationships and help you determine how characters can play off one another most impactfully.

FAQ
Can I request development for 1 character, or any number not listed in the packages?
Certainly! Send me a message and I'm happy to set up a custom order for any number of characters.
What if I don't have any summary information of the character to submit?
No problem at all. We can start from a blank slate. Instead of working off the details you already have, I will ask a series of questions about where the character fits into your plot and how you envision them moving forward. If you're not sure - no worries! This is what I'm here for.
What types of media do you develop characters for?
I have experience developing characters for screenplays, short stories, novels, comic books/ graphic novels, video games, and stage plays. If you don't see a category your project falls under listed here, send me a message.
What if I need help with something that isn't listed as part of the development packet?
If you need help with something you don't see on the list above, let me know and I can add it in. For example, you need a detailed family tree reaching back several generations for a specific character, no problem! Let me know what you need and I can make it happen.
