A microcast is our word for an asynchronous Q&A episode: you ask us tons of questions online, either through twitter or facebook or our listenermail account (on the sidebar), and we want to answer as many of them as we can.

How do you keep a powerful character interesting? Foreshadowing Trimming Flashbacks
