BREAKING: Neil Young has just sued Trump for playing "Rockin' in the Free World" at his rally in Ohio.
The lawsuit states:
“In short, the Song is the opposite of everything that Donald J. Trump stands for.”
Thank you Mr. Young!

If your protagonist is drifting along with the plot and not driving it, readers may have a hard time connecting with the character and becoming immersed in the story.

Resolution 2027: This is the year I finish the book!
We gather on Zoom with a quick check-in, end with an optional chat. But mostly we're just putting our heads down and clacking keyboards together. Every single day, January 2-31.

Always aim to show more than you tell. Your readers will want to assess a character's actions and come to their own conclusions about who a character is and what she wants.

This woman is 104 years old.
She’s seen 18 presidents in her life.
Listen to what she says about Trump.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The video shows an AI-generated woman, not a real 104-year-old person. The originating YouTube upload states all visuals are AI-created.

“Internal conflict… It’s the buried vein of gold—the why behind what a #character decides to do and how they feel about it—and possibly even why it matters… You will create an essential connection—that’s at the heart of all engaging stories.” buff.ly/3vhumXG @DarlingAxe
