Creating a hero (protagonist) for a fairy tale is perhaps the most important part of the story process. What makes a hero relatable? A good hero is one we care about, root for, want to protect. But it is one thing to write a likable character and another to write a compelling character with whom we will want to follow through a fantastical journey. In this seminar class, we will explore the elements that give protagonists the compelling edge, drawing readers into the story from beginning to end.
