The Pitfalls and Perils of Writing & Adapting Allegories

  • Resumen

  • In this episode of the Author Culture Podcast, I discuss the complexities of using allegories in storytelling

    I emphasize the importance of understanding the power and potential pitfalls of allegories, the implications of casting choices in TV and movie adaptations, and the need for care to respect authorial intent. Plus, my examples are the latest Snow White adaptation and the rumors about Aslan’s voice actor being female - so some hot takes are included here in my usual sane, healthy, and facts-first perspective.

    The conversation highlights how allegories can shape narratives and provoke diverse interpretations, urging writers to balance their use with quality storytelling.
