Do you really need a villain to tell a powerful story—or can life itself provide the opposition your character needs? In this episode, Zena answers a writer’s question about whether “life as the villain” works, and breaks down the difference between antagonists, villains, and complex characters who don’t fit neatly into either box.
You’ll learn:
- Why “life” as an antagonist can weaken your story (unless it’s a disaster plot).
- How antagonists differ from villains—and why that matters.
- The dangers of victimizing your protagonist.
- How to craft compelling conflict even without a traditional “bad guy.”
Perfect for writers exploring survival stories, nuanced characters, or non-traditional narrative conflicts.
This question came straight from Zena’s monthly office hours, which are open to anyone who’s ever purchased one of her classes. Want access like this? Check out her courses and join the mission. Learn more at The Storyteller’s Mission.
