DDW - S3 Ep05 - Writing Men - Part II

  • Résumé

  • In this episode of Doing Diversity in Writing, Bethany and guest host Louvie Tucker talk about writing better male characters. This is the second part of a two-part episode on the topic.

    Here’s what we talk about:

    • Physical representation of male characters
    • Derogatory language often applied to men and how we might handle it in fiction
    • Representation in media that we’ve found encouraging
    • Touch and intimacy (primarily nonsexual)
    • Using name calling as world building and character communication

    And here are the (re)sources we mentioned on the show:

    • Tough by Terry Crews
    • The Mask of Masculinity by Lewis Howes
    • The Art of Manliness
    • White Rage by Carol Anderson
    • Reading biographies and memoirs in general.
    • Youtube Channel Writing with Jenna Moreci has two good videos on “10 Best Tips for Writing Male Characters”. We sincerely recommend her channel and these episodes in particular.
    • “How to Write a Damn Good Man” by Robert Wood: (this is the article quoted at the very end of the podcast recording) https://www.standoutbooks.com/writing-male-characters/

    Films and novels we reference:

    • The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien
    • BBC’s Doctor Who (the current series)
    • BBC’s Sherlock series
    • The Visitor by Louvie Tucker
    • The Queen’s Enforcer by Ciara Darren

    Find Louvie Tucker’s novel, The Visitor, here. Available in eBook and print form on Amazon, and as an eBook in most online stores.
