Welcome to the second edition of LitLinks, a collection of links of potential interest to other writers. Check them out below, or if you prefer, listen to the AI-generated summary here or below.)

• Character archetypes can help writers round out their story or novel. Whether you’re looking for inspiration to create a “rogue with a heart of gold” (think Han Solo from the Star Wars franchise) or an outcast (Jay Gatsby or, um, Shrek?), you’re likely to find it among these 77 (yes, 77!) character archetypes compiled by Nathan Baugh over at World Builders.
• Danger ahead! Check out this mini masterclass on dangerous writing by Erin Karbuczksy in the Write or Die Mag newsletter.
• How to write faster, from Allie at Introspective Ink. No need to write more about this.
• Worth repeating: Rene Ostberg‘s essay on the benefits of taking a writing break, via Lit Mag News. (I referenced this one a few blog posts back, but it’s important enough to include again, I think. At least for me, since I’m still in on a writing funk hiatus.)
• Quiet writing — the first of four lessons on “crafting stories from everyday moments” by Andrea A. Firth in The Forever Workshop. Be sure to follow that website for the next lessons over the coming weeks.
