The hardest thing about writing Breaker at this point is definitely keeping the reader sympathetic with him. I've been criticized in the past for him being "too strong" or "too skilled". What I think some people don't realize is that this is by design. I've been writing Josh for over ten years, taking him all the way from a simple martial artist in a strange land to the man-sized behemoth he is today. My goal in the past few years with him has been just that; to find ways to make his story interesting DESPITE the fact that he's at the end of his character arc. I seem to have finally keyed on to something strong with the way I portrayed his quest for godliness in Faith United. The next big challenge for writing Breaker: finding an elegant way to retire him into the Thayne pantheon as an NPC and replace him with a new character.
