Who do you think of when I say Katniss? Or Percy? How about Romeo and Juliet?
Well-written characters will have us following along in their stories regardless of how many twists and turns they may take. They'll have us crying in one chapter and cheering them on to succeed in the next. Perhaps you find yourself rooting for the villains in the story. Whatever the case, a good story starts with a great character.
