Optional discussion Prompt: Enemies

Whether they’re dramatic enemies with physical fights, bureaucratic enemies who battle with paperwork, or political enemies who play mind games, all stories have antagonists.

What sort of antagonists are in your stories? Do you make them well-rounded characters or mere caricatures? Is it hard to write the “bad guy”, or easier?
