We needed more scenes of the past in Fourth wing. I wanted to see scenes from Violet and Dain as kids and teens to really understand their friendship.

question: how do you write characters that people relate to more besides using flashbacks

I just saw a post saying we’re doing too much exploration of characters pasts, which makes them uninteresting? Idk how I feel about it.

a lot of TT books do so little backstory and interior emotion. it works for fanfic but in original work it often makes the characters feel like dolls.

This isn’t fantasy but the magnolia parks / daisy haites books do this SO WELL. I’m instantly connected to the characters so well

What did you think about the writing style in Fourth Wing? I thought it was a little juvenile and I stopped reading like a chapter in

for me, six of crows is a good example of being able to understand why characters make the choice they make. leigh bardugo does a good job of building

But in like Maas’s house of earth and blood. She could have started that book in part 2. Pt 1 was the trauma and the why and how she got there, but
