The Importance of Complex Characters By Jacqueline Friedland

Photo by Rebecca Weiss A couple of years ago, there was a debate in the literary world about “likeable” characters.   The question, essentially, boiled down to this: must a character be unpleasant, whether angry or aggressive, selfish, or all gloom-and-doom in order to be taken seriously as a literary character?   When the debate arose, the focus was primarily on female characters— if a female protagonist has too many redeemable qualities as a person, does this detract from her substance as a character in a story?   This query nagged at me and took on a new shape during my writing Trouble the Water , as I watched my two main protagonists undergo journeys of personal growth that left them both decidedly more pleasant than the people they were when the story began.   The question I needed to answer was whether depth and meaning are negated by personal recoveries?

Thank you to Little Brown for giving me a copy of Winter Solstice by Elin Hilderbrand.  I was given this copy from a Goodreads giveaway in exchange for an honest review.  For fans of Elin Hilderbrand she has written the conclusion to the Quinn family journey.  Winter Solstice is not only the finale to the Winter Street series , but a sequel The Rumor .  I have not read either series or the Rumor.  I will be reviewing this book as a stand-alone.  Synopsis:  Once again the Quinn family will gather together for Christmas on Nantucket.  This Christmas will be different than the ones from the past.  It will be the last Christmas at the Inn.  Kelley the patriarch of the family is dying from brain cancer.  His wife Mitzi has all she can handle with caring for Kelley, and when their son Brett comes home from Afghanistan.  Will he find a way to reconnect with the world?  Ava has started a new chapter in New York, and...

Have you ever wondered how Writer’s Corner came to be?                                        A blogger friend recently asked why did you start your blog?   I once said that I would never blog or write.   I was in a job search at the time and it was not going anywhere.   So I decided that I would work on my writing.   I found a nonpaying writing position with chicklitclub.com .   I started Writer’s Corner initially to practice what I wrote for that site.      The next part of the journey was meeting some great ladies that some of you know well Samantha Janning at Chick Lit Plus , Melissa Amster and Amy Bromberg from ChickLit Central , Laura Kay from A Novel Review , Pia from So Many Books So LittleTime , and last but not least Liz and Lisa fro...
