This is a ghost post by Phillip Callaway, a friend from my helpful army of ghost writers. (Very fitting that she chose to write about death, isn't it?) Thanks, Phil!
First of all, this is my first blog post, so it might be kind of disjointed and messed up. Secondly, I’m not very good at staying on track when I’m writing, so this might go a lot of places and contain a lot of random info. Thirdly, I hope you enjoy!
We’ve all been there. Some character -- the hero, the hero’s best friend, or just some random dude we were really fond of -- is suddenly and epically (or not, in the really tragic case) killed off by the ruthless author. It happens all the time. But, as much as we miss him, if you think about it, the story probably wouldn’t be quite as enjoyable if the author had seen fit to save him. If you’re anything like me, you can think of a movie, book or TV show where one of the characters died and then turns up later, saying, ‘Lol, Jk.’ It’s, quite frankly, annoying. Like you decided that the author didn’t want a ton of fans (or not) showing up at his door and trying to commit homicide.
