Death Of 1000 Cuts

S4E19 - Writing a Novel Pt4

This is the 4th episode of my series where I try to write a book from first idea to final draft, and take you along for the ride. In this episode, I do a deep dive into the art of 'crunchy specificity'. Having struggled to zero in on a character through general traits, I try to follow Michael Moorcock's advice and come at it from the opposite direction - building characters from the sound of their names alone.
