Quote: SpandexMonkeyMan said: Whilst I'm all for 'realistic' storylines and such, topical is difficult to write without being preachy. Plus, I have a somewhat four-colour approach to superhero ethics, so I'd probably struggle with the more ambiguous side of things (not that I don't, or can't, write morally ambiguous characters, it's just not as natural to me).
As for Chewy's point about planning, I agree we shouldn't plan too far in advance, but there should be some planning at the start, possibly just a general concept and a vague plan on the ending.
Agreed.
