#WordWeavers 18. Do you write characters with different beliefs than yourself?
Yes, especially, but not exclusively, antagonists. I once wrote a couple of chapters from the POV of an overt fascist which was uncomfortable, as was the research.
[Yes, he was the antagonist! He coldly used the tools of fascism to incite a rebellion without believing the things he said – at first. He didn’t care about the damage it caused, the ends were everything. Then he came to believe his own propaganda.]
