Backstories For Untold Characters (Character Development Part 4)

from ChristianWritersBookStore · host Michael Furlonger

In today's episode, author Michael Furlonger recaps on building an important character. Using Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series, Michael shares on how giving characters a back story helps to shape the world that an author is trying to create. Michael's example of a character is Tom Bombadil from Lord Of The Rings. Although a minor character in the books, he doesn't carry the story forwards, but his character does have a part to play in the broader scheme of "building" Middle Earth.
