Creative Writing Quote of the Week episode 4: Stephen King 'set loose the monsters

This week's quote of the week is from the wonderful Stephen King once again; the inventor of scary clowns and master of horror. This is what he has to say:
"I try to create sympathy for my characters, then turn the monsters loose."
In Stephen King's case, of course, these are literal monsters. But you can also think of these as difficulties and problems that your character needs to overcome.
So, follow King's advice - make us care about the character then release those monsters!
