Contrivance
This is perhaps our most used tag, because it’s a sin every writer is guilty of sooner or later. It’s an old school tag from the blog’s Childhood Trauma origins, but it finds its way into every series we cover. That’s OK though because contrivance really does seem to bring people together. (Though some fictional characters really shouldn’t be brought together.)
