Today's episode is our monthly Craft Jam. This is a new feature at DIY MFA, where once a month, Lori and I will be jamming about the craft. In these episodes, we'll be doing a deep dive into various craft topics like character development, story structure, world building and more.

This month's episode is a deep dive into how to create compelling characters.

In this episode Lori and I discuss:

• Using method writing to get inside your characters' heads.

• How to create balanced scenes using the TADA! method.

• The different types of voice and how to use each.

Plus, our #1 reading recommendation on compelling characters.
