11.36: The Elemental Relationship - a podcast by Brandon Sanderson, Mary Robinette Kowal, Dan Wells, and Howard Tayler
from 2023-12-13T17:01:12.516819
In elemental relationship stories the primary page-turning driver is the relationship between two or three characters ¹. In this episode we discuss ways in which we can write character relationships—parent/child, buddy-cop, romance, and more—to be compelling. Credits: this episode was recorded by Jeff Cools, and mastered by Alex Jackson ¹We're differentiating "Relationship" from "Ensemble" because in our elemental genre model the elemental ensemble story is quite a bit different from the elemental relationship.
