Building Fictional Characters: a 10-Day Approach

"10 Days of Character Building: Wrap Up"
PoeWar (November 1, 2007)

"Thanks to all of you who took part in 10 Days of Character Building, either in the comments or on your own. It was a fun little project, one that I might revisit (I still have a few ideas running around in my head). For the sake of convenience, I am posting links to all of the individual topics here. For those of you participating in NaNoRriMo, good luck and good writing!..."

Looks like a pretty good list of resources, from "Character Bio Sheets" to "Defining Characters By Their Roles."
