Description from the creator

Today we're talking about one of my favorite subjects: BREAKING CHARACTERS (destroying their lives, crushing their souls, etc.) A lot of writers think this is as simple as making something horrible happen to their character...but ACTUALLY, you can take it WAY deeper than that. And that's exactly what I talk about in today's video.
