Discover the art of narrative writing by learning how to craft authentic, memorable characters whose depth, growth, and presence will captivate readers, strengthen storytelling, and leave a lasting impression across every genre. The character stands as one of the most vital components of a narrative work. In many instances, the success of a novel, short story, or tale hinges on the impression the protagonists leave on the reader's mind. The greatest works of fiction are remembered precisely for the significance of their central figures-their feats, personalities, and presence within the story. For this reason, the evolution of a character in a narrative text must be carefully shaped by the author to leave a lasting mark on readers. A classic example is Don Quijote de la Mancha, whose symbolic power and psychological depth have endured across centuries. Character development involves two fundamental tasks: construction and portrayal. Construction takes place during the planning stage of the work, that is, when the writer maps out the blueprint that will guide the writing process. Portrayal, on the other hand, refers to the act of employing various linguistic and discursive strategies to present the character and their actions during the writing itself. This book serves as a resource that equips writers of narrative works with key elements to consider in both the creation and portrayal of characters. Across its chapters, it explores concepts such as the definition of a character, their types, traits, the relationship between the narrator and the figure being depicted, and the ways of narrating the protagonist. This book does not aim to be a rigid guide for constructing and portraying characters but rather to offer a range of elements and tools that writers can adapt as they see fit for their stories.
