The Purpose of the Villain in Your Story
Description
One of the most common questions I am asked from anyone who is writing about their life goes like this:
How do I write about the people who hurt me?
Maybe you find yourself wanting to write about your parents, lovers, ex-lovers, siblings, neighbors, bosses, co-workers, etc but you aren’t sure how you would do that in a way that is true and also respectful.
Maybe you aren’t worried about being respectful but you are worried about being sued.
In this episode, I’ll share my own process for writing about a villain in my story and discuss a guiding concept I use anytime I’m writing about others. This storytelling truth might bring healing beyond your writing.
The villain in the story has a purpose. I’ll share it with you today.
