Each character has his/her own story to tell it's up to the writer to make that happen. How can you make sure you're headed in the right direction and keep that character true to the plot? How can you keep your plot from overwhelming your characters?  Character Driven Plotting can help.  Here's a method that melds the character and story together so that one doesn't work without the other. Learn how to build the plot with your character in mind and how to develop your characters so that the plot becomes their own!
 
This unique class can help you learn to use your character to help you get through those problems of a sagging middle.  Use your plot to test your character and make him/her shine!
