This week we're getting into it and sniffing around where characters come from. From our own twisted psyches? From people we know? What are the parameters you need to get right to create good characters? Should they be plot-agnostic or have baked in conflicts? We do our best to answer these, plus:
- Harry Potter spoilers
- character archetypes
- wild card characters who willfully insert themselves into our stories WITHOUT CONSENT
- bipolar Gandalf
and plenty more!
