Writing Powerful Queens, Kings, and Rulers in Fantasy
“Power doesn’t corrupt. It reveals.” — Often true in life, always true in fiction. Let’s be honest: we’ve all read a fantasy book where the so-called “ruler” is more cardboard than crown. Bland, stiff, and strangely uninspiring — even though they supposedly command empires. But when it’s done right? A fantasy queen or king can be utterly magnetic. You remember them. You quote them. You might even accidentally start modeling your own confidence after them (I’ve been there).

Active Voice vs. Passive Voice:
“The dog bit the man” is not the same as “The man was bitten by the dog.” — Know the difference. When it comes to writing strong, compelling prose, voice matters. And I don’t mean your narrative voice — I mean the grammatical voice of your sentences: active or passive. These two forms shape how your reader processes action, information, and even character agency. Mastering when to use each can elevate your writing from competent to commanding.
