A couple times! Ketterly, in the story I started recently called Capertown is rather unreliable re: his perception of how others see him (he's rather self-loathing). Koya is the POV character of a one-shot I wrote last year, Cables to Cobwebs, and his view of the antagonist (for a certain value of the word) is very definitely colored by his personal issues with the guy (...not that this part came through very well. Alas!).

The unreliability of these narrators has been fairly low-key, though -- more just a product of the fact that it's in their POV and so they're putting their own gloss on events, rather than a device for pulling one over the audience. I think it'd be cool to do something like that, though!



Okay, next question: What types of character dynamics do you find most interesting?
