"Irony is the bringing together of two contradictory truths and to make out of the contradiction a new truth, with a laugh or a smile."

Previous Quote

Developing a character with genuine depth requires a focus on not just desire but how the character deals with frustration of her desires, as well as her vulnerabilities, her secrets, and especially her contradictions. This development needs to be forged in scenes, the better to employ your intuition rather than your intellect.
