I'm going to think about this some more when it's not so late and I'm not so tired.<br /><br />Excellent post.Joanne R.

I hear <i>House</i> is really well-written as well.<br /><br />Frankie, I think all artists probably do this unconsciously, but being a great writer is all about being hyper-aware--this is a theory of mine anyway.<br /><br />Jennifer, Flawed characters rule, but I sometimes wonder about the thin line between dearly flawed and annoyingly flawed.

My favorite character on tv is Dexter, by far, he is so complex and written so well.<br /><br />For a book, The Catcher in the Rye is a good one Holden is such a great character too.

I am a fan of deeply flawed too.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861022355718378425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3239332589974235100.post-6813545006129067332009-10-27T09:24:03.818-04:002009-10-27T09:24:03.818-04:00What a great post!!
