Laugh, Cry, Wait is a podcast that will give you a behind the scenes view of us plotting Pretense, and other dramas in the future. You’ll get to listen in as we start from a concept and build it out into a plot that’s ready to be taken and fleshed out by a writer. You get to come along with us as we hash out who characters are, what role they play in the story, and how they’ll drive the story to it’s conclusion. Laugh, Cry, Wait isn’t intended to be a fast overview of the plotting process. Instead it’s meant to take you on the rambling ride that a story idea goes through before it becomes a viable plot.

Motivation. It's an incredibly important part of writing characters. The motivation needs to be real and relatable. On top of that, it must also make sense for the given character. Strong motivation is what makes good characters great. In this episode, we attempt to flesh out what Ida's motivation is, and as a result, we begin shaping the goal toward which the story arc will move.
