About This Blog!

Creating Convincing Characters is an online community that I set up in 2000.
Initially, it was to promote and to back-up the TypeCasting workshops that I run from time to time.

I had hoped it would develop into a thriving community, buzzing with actively creative people who wanted to give and get feedback, share ideas, learn from each other, and so much more!

Well, it didn't work out that way, sadly. Who knows, though, perhaps this blog will help to bring new life the that group!

The reasons are many ... but that was then and this is now. Blogs, My-Space, YouTube and other wonder of the web have since appeared and evolved and, having been weaned on (if not quite weaned off) science fiction, I delight in all things high-tech. I don't understand most of them any more than I did as a boy, but I certainly benefit from them.

So, I decided to resuscitate and blog the CCC content, which includes articles, guidelines, links, frameworks for people who create fictional characters and want them to be full of life and conviction.

I have already revised and posted a few articles, which I hope you will find interesting and useful. You are invited to comment, question or contribute in any way you want.

And, of course, let people know about what you are doing, writing, reading, playing.

go well
