Dynamic Characters
Dynamic Characters: How to Create Personalities That Keep Readers Captivated by Nancy Kress
A how-to-write book with the focus described above. Starts with the externals of name, location, occupation and more -- I note that it's chiefly about more or less contemporary settings -- then the internals of motivations, attitudes, and more, and finally how this all interacts with plot. Character is plot, after all. Also secondary characters, character change, and more.
