OUT OF CHARACTER is a newsletter about writing, craft, and how we build our stories. I'm Frankie Hagg, writer of speculative fiction — I also self-publish romance novels under another name. This newsletter chronicles my journey through different genres and publishing spheres, developing craft along the way. I've written about things like writing goals and statistics, act structures, and writer's block (that last one a lot). I hope you'll find something here that's helpful to you!
