I loved The Emotional Craft of Fiction and Writing the Breakout Novel also by Donald Maass.

What a great list! Thank you for compiling it! I have saved the email so that I can have it as a reference. :) For me the two KM Weiland books you mentioned truly helped, especially if you use them together. I generally think that for the protagonist, the character arc and story arc are interlinked. Also, using the enneagram to aid in developing characters and their behavior was also very helpful for me.

I would love to hear more about the courses...Thank you again, for introducing me to Mohr. My "utilization" (in terms of coaching) is from a business/career standpoint--but it's equally apt.

Oh, I think I’ve read all but two of these books. Great choices!
