“That is amazing advice for anyone struggling with a villain– you have to look at the darkest parts of yourself in order to make a villain convincing. The part that is so desperate to live forever that he would split his soul into seven pieces (Voldemort). Or, in my case, the part that cares more about my own comfort than providing for those who are truly needy (Jeanine).
