Reading all of this week's entries, I'm struck by how many of the "little things" were actually mixed blessings or had a bittersweet quality. Although I hid them in juxtapositions rather than explaining them (since I was writing in the style of a celebrity puff-piece for the entertainment section of a tabloid), I can see how my own entry contained the same things.

It seems we are all drawn to the happy imperfection of the real world - even in our fiction. So, my lesson for this week is to "keep it real" by intentionally redeeming a character’s negative trait and/or de-sanctifying a positive trait.
