How do you avoid writing the stock villain?  How do you move beyond the cliche to create a bad guy that surprises us? That goes against the status quo?

We'll discuss:

• What readers really want from your villain
• How to explore what's underneath your character's bad acts
• Better questions to get under your villain's skin
• How to tap into your own impulses to write more nuanced and believable villains
