Being a Better Writer: What Should My Characters Be Doing in a War or Battle? · 9:32pm Feb 27th, 2023

Welcome back writers … to a bit of an odd topic, I’ll admit. Even now, looking at the title floating there above my text box, I can’t help but note how strange it is … But at the same time, I feel like there’s some value in this one. So, today, we’re going to talk about it.
