Why Are Character Reactions Important?
107You ever noticed in a lot of modern movies how nobody seems to react to anything in a believable way? A lot of characters react to world ending danger as though it’s little more than a meme. Which, to be fair, might be a product of our generation, right? We make memes about everything, no matter how terrible they are, even while they’re happening.
Anyway, let’s talk about why you SHOULDN’T do that in writing. Just because we as a people are terrible doesn’t mean our writing has to be.
