A month-long novel-planning challenge. NaNoWriMo'ers welcome! 2026 sign-ups open Sept 1st. |
I judge a story hard core by its antagonist. Protagonists are easy to make. Making a believable antagonist is tricky. Making one that's relatable and intriguing, even trickier. To make a really good antagonist, you should be able to flip the story over (antagonist becomes protagonist, etc.) and still have a story worth reading. |
