P is for Paradox

from Just Another Word Podcast Hosted by Timothy Vigil

In this episode, we look at the knot that holds the truth together. We explore "paradox"—a statement or situation that seems to contradict itself but reveals a deeper, more complex reality. In this episode, we discuss: The Paradoxical Character: Analyzing Aragorn as the "King in Exile". Building the Knot: How to use internal conflicts and thematic contradictions to move beyond "boring" traits and create an emotional payoff that the reader must earn by solving the riddle themselves. Is your protagonist "just brave," or are they a paradox? Subscribe for more episodes and to join me in this journey through the alphabet!
