A hero wants to start something . . . or stop something . . . or both.

Let’s walk through a story idea.

Why should I care about my hero?

It’s about qualities, not function.

You don’t have to like the hero, but . . . 

The hero makes the big decisions.

I am not a gatekeeper.

A writer’s tool is a way of thinking.

Stories are the dreams we are too afraid to live . . .

What does your hero want?
