Secondary Characters


In one of my excerpts, featuring Tyler, I introduce a secondary character that I don't introduce properly. I wanted to take a moment now and explain. Lacey is the catalyst that causes Jessie to finally leave Tyler, and she becomes Tyler's next girlfriend. Though he is very abusive to her, and her relationship with Tyler ends very tragically, Lacy is only a secondary character. When writing her into the story, I wanted to add a little about her past so that you would understand her better. For instance, why would anybody in their right mind choose to date a guy that has plead guilty to assault to avoid domestic violence charges? I wanted to make sure that everybody understood how she was abused and the way that affected her choices. Hopefully I haven't confused anybody with an unaccounted for character.
