What if the most memorable character in a story never speaks, never moves, and isn't even alive? Inanimate Objects as Characters explores the craft of turning things—houses, dolls, mirrors, machines—into presences with personality, agency, and emotional weight. We break down the techniques writers use to give objects a voice without dialogue, from symbolic resonance and point-of-view tricks to the uncanny power of objects that seem to watch back. Whether you're writing horror, literary fiction, or children's stories, this episode shows you how to make the things in your world matter as much as the people.
