Hello! You’ve joined The Script Mistress for Scene 26: Character Archetype Series, The Orphan! I am your host, Amber Bosworth. For the next 12 episodes, I’m going to dig deep into each of the 12 popular character archetypes. I barely scratched the surface in my episode all the way back to Scene 11. Go back and listen if you want just a quick rundown of those 12 types at www.thescriptmistress.com/scene11.

Now, if you want to stay up to date on podcasts, events, and challenges, get on my mailing list at www.thescriptmistress.com. I also have this whole episode on video at www.thescriptmistress.com/scene26 for your enjoyment along with a completely Free download that you can find on that page! I’ve also started The Script Mistress YouTube Channel. All of these episodes are available there as well: https://www.youtube.com/@thescriptmistress/featured

I go over the strengths, weaknesses, characteristics, and popular examples of the Orphan Archetype.
