Please help me figure how I can move through this in the way You would have me.' Cheryl Ladd chasecontrolelement share on social

Because I grew up on 'Star Wars', that was the best example of creating a full and rich world to me as a writer. When I was watching those movies as a kid, I wanted to know more about every damn character in that universe. There was always a hint that there was a story there that you just weren't getting to see. Christopher McCulloch charactercreatedamn share on social
