How to Write Your Character's Darkest Moment
Without conflict, you have no story. Without ultimate struggle, there is no transformative victory for your character. Stories are about change, or a character's refusal to change. To depict that, we must bring our characters to a breaking point. This one moment is what gives readers a reason to cheer at the end, or weep if you're writing a tragedy.
In this week's writer coaching session, we'll explore how...and why....to craft your character's darkest moment.
