geekvixen asked: I’m having a really, really hard time letting my main character make mistakes, but I’m also really, really worried about having a main character who always makes the right choice (because that’s fucking boring). Any advice?

neil-gaiman:

Yes. Go and read http://journal.neilgaiman.com/2011/12/my-new-year-wish.html and then reflect that the advice is good for everyone, fictional and otherwise.

This is a pretty interesting way of looking at it.
