I’m going to be doing a free online workshop on creating villains with the Muse Online Writers Conference on Friday, October 7:

Creating Villains Your Readers Will Love to Hate: From Darth Vader to Voldemort
Villains are the ones who drive our heroes to achieve their goals. A three-dimensional villain will worm his or her way into your head and make you think. Share some of your favorite bad guys, and I’ll share some tips for breathing life into your book’s antagonist. But beware, the more you like them, the harder it may be to vanquish them.

Did I mention the conference is free? But you have to register by 9/25!

I already know my favorite Thief of Hope villain. Who’s yours?
