Do you want to write unforgettable side characters? If so, this episode is for you. Side characters can often take a backseat to the main story and sometimes feel like filler to simply add to the length of the plot. Sometimes they act as a comic relief or as a sidekick that helps the main character accomplish their goal...but many writers make the mistake of writing side characters that lack internal conflict and meaning. In this special story mining episode, Abbie and I are answering a big question: How can we write better side characters? We'll be using some of our favorite story examples that showcase these triedandtrue storytelling principles. Grab a notebook and let's get into this!
