Dauntless Writing Podcast Episode 15: Morally Dubious Characters

Why I like George RR Martin and Lannisters

In this Podcast:

Morally dubious and lovably gray characters;

Why Superman is dull;

How Batman walks the line and is thus popular as heck, but in the end you know he'll do the right thing;

Why Jamie Lannester is a compelling douchebag;

Why Tywin Lannester is a monster you can relate to;

The fact is, people are not black and white, and neither should your characters be;

People might not like what they do, but they will understand, and sympathise if you provide enough reason for them to act the way they do;

How to get your morally dubious characters believable and what to avoid in pursuit of that goal.
