ostarellaJust a little thought about villains...
"Audiences enjoy bad guys because through these characters, normal people are able to experience, vicariously, what its like to be vicious, nasty, and amoral." - Michael Douglas
Something to think about as we write our various villains and bad guys - give the readers a chance to "see" what being the bad guy is like... ?

But I agree - anytime we have the chance to write about someone who lives or acts outside society's rules, we can have a field day. And then there's the two ends of that spectrum - those who *like* to break the rules and those who have no choice. I think the guys are kinda of combination of the two. ;-)
