In their new episode, the Writing Excuses hosts continue their discussion on creating meaningful ensemble casts. In this edition, they talk about the cast in terms of archetypes. They examine how archetypes help us get started, how they can help us set reader expectations, and the archetype-related pitfalls we need to avoid. They also question whether archetype is even the correct term.
