How to Write Fiction: How Not to Write Characters
In this episode, host Rebecca Galardo and author and teacher Holly Lisle discuss Criminally Annoying Characters and what we did to deserve them.
We uncover the different types of characters that fit this description, reasons they've shown up, and how to decide if they're worth a little tweaking or too horrible to keep. We show you where to look to pinpoint the flaws and what options you have fix what broke, and to learn how to use this prevent future disaster characters.
