Should you use tropes?

from How to Write Good · host Daniel Poppie

Cowboy hats. Metal walls with rivets. Redshirts. Duels. Towering skycrapers. There are many tropes that show up in stories. Where these show up depends up which type of story they are in. Because these things have been used over and over again, people have learned to hate them. But if you are one of those people who hate tropes, I think you should reconsider your attitude toward them. Tropes can be extremely useful, and on today's episode of How to Write Good, I am going to tell you exactly why I think that.
