Romancing the Story: Writing Romance, Storytelling, and Book Structure

Ep 75 - Unveiling Character Depth through Family with Amber Royer

August 05, 2024

"...Introducing family shows a different side (to the character) and allows the character to be a little more well-rounded in the way they interact..."

Writing instructor and multi-genre author, Amber Royer, encounters the challenges and surprises of introducing new characters with her Bean to Bar Cozy Mystery Series. She even touched on understating off-page characters until authors know the dynamics they present with the main protagonist and the importance of moving a character forward.
