The Challenge of Writing Genius
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 7, 2020
Everyone loves a genius! The character that has the answers, or makes the deductions, or solves the puzzles for the team. The guy (or gal) that will have a gift for noticing what nobody else does, sees the connections that elude everyone else. Even in stories that aren't of ...
