| 1 | ''The Complete Writer's Guide to Heroes & Heroines: Sixteen Master Archetypes'' is primarily focused on RomanceNovel characters: the viewpoint character (heroine) and the desired mate (hero). While it's not the all-encompassing vision that efficiently collapses all possible heroic characters into sixteen easy-to-remember classes, it's well worth taking a look at, especially if you plan to write for the Romance genre. |

| 3 | The book goes into detail on strengths and weaknesses, as well as upbringing, and even discusses how the characters interact with each other (a Spunky Kid, for example, can be paired with a Lost Soul to become an automatic ManicPixieDreamGirl). Furthermore, google the book and you wind up on the homepage of one of the authors, where she goes into detail on the ''villainous'' versions of the heroes and heroines. |
