Highlights

1) Contradiction, internal or external, makes characters more interesting. This is the fundamental quality found in three-dimensional characters.

2) Not all characters need to be three-dimensional.

Red Sneaker Exercises

1) Previously, you came up with five words that define your main characters. Are they all one-dimensional, that is, all good or all bad? If so, see if you can make your characters more complex. Add a bad trait to the good guys and a good trait to the bad guys.

2) Now see if you can inject some contradictory characteristics, such as self-doubt, agenda conflict, or mutually exclusive goals. Can you make it worse? Can you make the inward conflict seem irreconcilable?
