Sir, that’s my emotional support dead woman in a refrigerator! If you’ve ever considered killing off a character in your writing, listen to this episode. We discuss in depth when it’s okay to kill off characters and when it’s just a lazy plot trick or cheap emotional manipulation, with a side of when it might be sexist, just for kicks. From Batman’s parents to Sean Bean, this episode has everything you ever needed to know about writing satisfying character deaths. Spoilers for Harry Potter, True Blood, Fullmetal Alchemist, Lord of the Rings, The Avengers, The Umbrella Academy, and Game of Thrones.
