Mind Games

Sometimes the arch villain of the story is the one pulling all the strings in the background, and the protagonists don't know about them until the endgame.
And other times, the arch villain gets to clash with a protagonist (or an opposing character) that is also a mastermind pulling ...
Struggling Together
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 17, 2021
So this is a trope that unfortunately is very true in life as well. TV tropes calls it “We ARE Struggling Together” and I call it ‘the divided front’.
When the Big Bad is so bad that everyone agrees to set aside their differences to fight it off, then usually ...
Story Seeds

In the early parts of the story, it helps the quality of the thing and the experience of the audience to layer in the details that will come into play later.

Comic Prep Work
damehelsing at 12:00AM, July 4, 2021
One of the things I love the most about comics, is the prep work, which may not be obvious by the countless amount of times that I’ve stated that I’m doing absolutely no prep work as of now for Scorned; but when I worked on Scarred Eden, that ...
Intrigue and Scheming
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 3, 2021
Who doesn't love a good intrigue, some scheming in the shadows, some low chuckling behind a curtain?
The author.
It's the author that doesn't love it. Or rather, the sheer background work that needs to go into writing a good scheming plot, counter plot, and the whole ...
