One of my writing groups has a yearly event where we celebrate one of our month meetings by sharing writing knowledge to the other members. We might share such things as articles, video presentations and web sites. One of the members was particularly interested in material about how to improve characterization in our fiction. So I decided to go looking.
Here is a list that I’ve created.
