Subject: Help!! Trying to make a characte evil

I love the way that riddlerose put that, but don't forget, that the audience doesn't have to know what you know.

If your chapter opens: "His eyes let in the little shards of sunlight that darted through the break in the blinds, but even as he woke he couldn't help but remember the dream that he had Joe exactly where he wanted him. So long he'd wanted him where he had him now, and even the apparently delightful ray of sunshine that had started his day would stop him from what he had fixed in his mind now." Joe is clearly the protagonist, but its the antagonist that we are feeling for here. Make him hate things the audience will love, I've kept is basic, he hate ssunlight, but you can see my point. Paint a picture. Riddlerose hit the nail on the head when she (I assume she) defined it as the villan and victim. These roles are immensely important when you're planning your villan. (I apologise if I keep going on about this, but I love writing villans, bad guys are always so much more fun to write for!)
