How to Solve Story Problems All by Yourself

You could be as content and relaxed as Joanie after trying Interview for Insight. ;-)

If you’re the kind of novelist who likes to do as much on your own as you can before seeking help, Interview for Insight is for you.

It’s everything you need to get your characters to spill their secrets and reveal their world.

How?

By conversing with your characters outside of your story.

You’ll learn more about their motivations, their desires, their problems, their world—whatever it is you need to know more about—all in 30 minutes or less.

With Interview for Insight, you’ll receive:

• A quick-start guide to get you in the interviewer’s chair in 5 minutes, ready to start your first interview.

• A primer on the basic interview questions to elicit the answers you need to transform your story.

• A comparison of interview methods—to help you choose the best for your learning style.

• Suggestions on the “best” time to interview your characters—no matter where you are in the drafting or revising stage.

• Tips for when a character won’t speak to you—in other words, how to play games with your imagination so you can loosen up and allow your characters to speak their minds—even if you don’t want to hear what they have to say.

• 2 sample character interviews to show you the kinds of information you can glean from your characters that you didn’t consciously know.

The digital download includes a 15-page pdf and approximately 30 minutes of audio clips—in case you prefer to listen instead of read.

All for $17.

The idea for Interview Insight came to me when I realized that one thing my book coaching clients have in common is needing to know their characters better—from the inside.

You may already know a whole lot about your character—from their basic demographics to their favorite superhero, food, and memory.

While that’s good info to know, it’s not enough to fully inhabit your characters—especially your main character. For that, you need to get inside of their head and their heart. Which is where Interviewing for Insight can help.

It’s a micro course to help you develop the skill of accessing your own subconscious in a fun and creative.

You’ll learn things about your characters that will astonish you.

And that new information will help you deepen and transform your novel.
