Many writers struggle with creating characters who feel both complex and authentic. One common issue is misidentifying a character's fatal flaw, confusing it with a simple moral deficiency or surface-level trait. This misunderstanding can lead to flat, unrelatable characters who fail to resonate with audiences.
In this episode, we break down the crucial difference between a fatal flaw and a wound—and why understanding this distinction is key to crafting compelling character arcs. By learning how these two elements connect, you'll discover how to make your characters' flaws a driving force in their personal growth and the overall plot. Whether you're writing a hero, anti-hero, or flawed protagonist, this insight will elevate your character development and strengthen your story's emotional core.
