Characters: How Many is Too Many?
by Shaye Author IconMail Icon
I’ve jumped a little ahead here, but I’m working on the Dramatis Personae (If I’ve spilled that correctly, it’s a miracle!) and I was curious about number of characters. I’ve read a variety of things online. Ranging from fewer is better, to the more the merrier. What’s your opinion? I’ve read that this varies by genre?

Also, out of those characters, how many should be full in-depth characters with an arc and their own story and such things?
