Protagonist Have an Unrealistic Flaw? 3 Steps to Building Character Flaws Readers Will Cheer For

In this episode, I talk about how to make sure your audience connects with your protagonist and their character flaws, even if said flaws are deep and somewhat implausible. I discuss:

1) Using mystery and intrigue to get them hooked early on

2) Using backstory to effectively demonstrate the flaw

3) Making a direct and powerful connection between their backstory and their flaw

So give this episode a listen and tell me how you go about demonstrating your character flaws for your audience.
