New Writing Class: The Hidden Psychology of Story Conflict
Conflict is often taught as the engine of plot, but what if it is really the engine of psychological transformation? When we look at story through a symbolic lens, antagonists can be understood not just as external obstacles, but as forces that reveal the deeper inner workings of the protagonist. This is what I’m exploring […]

Internal Conflict vs. External Conflict: The Shift From Projection to Agency in Character Arc
One of the easiest mistakes in writing is assuming stories are about the external action of defeating the antagonistic force, when in reality they are about what the protagonist must become in order to face that conflict. Internal conflict vs. external conflict reveals how your story’s character arcs operate beneath the plot. The tension between […]

Finished my design for one of my major antagonists, Elara! She's a scientist and the oldest daughter of Apollo. Her powers are similar to her father's, but she's more calm and patient like her stepmother, Aquila, was.

If you'd like to study an interesting #villain #antagonist, I can recommend taking a closer look at Richard Onslow Roper from #TheNightManager (the TV series based on the same-called novel by John Le Carré).
Roper is absolutely ruthless. He is also very rich, very charming and very well-educated, and it shows. And he is always (or almost always) one step ahead of everyone else around him, including his enemies. He is a character you love to hate, as they say. -

Got into the Antagonist¹ dashboard with a small #Python script. The main goal is to be able to do DNS changes in the #Antagonist dashboard so that I can update DNS entries from the command line.

Why self-publish online?
1. #villain #antagonist in the book is the #oligarchy #plutocracy #billionaires - can't hand over control/money to #bezos of #amazon
2. Theme of book is #adaptation to #climatechange - hard to destroy #forests to publish it, hence #online
3. #worldbuilding is easier online with addition of #links over time to #references and #new #stories

Listen, hear me out, okay...?
The #protagonist, #antagonist relationship is foundational to #fascism - and is totally the discovery of fire regarding #psyops.
#Dehumanization is not only a weapon against people, but also a harbinger of ignorance, pretence and #prejudice.
As such, scapegoating is a powerful tool for any #politician to escape the people's ire, or to justify the invasion of foreign lands.
As #writers I think we've leaned on this crutch for way too long.

#WordWeavers 01/10/25 - Antagonist POV: Do you have any flaws?
Corvus: NONE! What made you think I had flaws? I'm PERFECT!
Fenrir: My biggest flaw is that I still let myself get attached to people sometimes. My job would be a lot easier if I cared about no one.
Rhea: I am flawless ✨ Just kidding! I'm actually kind of dumb 😆 Well, it's more like I don't think before I do things lol!

Design for Altair's grandfather, Apollo! He was one of the most infamous space pirates in history & was the first known human to wield the power of the celestials. He dies 30 years before the main story begins, but is still very important to the plot.

What are your favourite #antagonist #villain figures within #SolarPunk realm of imagination? Ones, who can generate some real tension, bring some darker vibes into the #story? I really miss the suspense, thrill and cliff-hangers of epic and existential quality.
Too much Soviet SF in my young days, I guess.... -
