marshlands below. The sounds of their feet on the wet ground the only sound of any consequence resounding in their ears as they trudged through the sludgy grasses. After a great deal of walking there finally came into view...

Being a writer is when you have a harder time picking a name for the person you made up in your head than an actual living thing (baby, dog, cat, etc.)

your tips are so amazing ❤️

here's an example of mine I'd like share that goes with the topic- I'll keep it short

So my WIP right now has one main main character and a side main character (who I will be referring to as MMC and SMC from now on). While not too long ago I was writing almost solely from the MMCs point of view with like very occasional chapters from the SMCs and so I would have gaps between my major events and have to find ways to fill them. Eventually it got to point where the story would have just felt bland and dragged on because the events I'd used as fillers were more common than the main events which were what I really wanted to be writing about. Well one day I thought "why don't I just add more chapters from the SMCs point of view" in order to fix that. AND IT WORKED! My book now has way less pointless filler chapters between events because I replaced them with chapters from a different characters POV, so they still serve a purpose and you get both characters POVs (so you get them going from enemies/rivals to them slowly trusting each other and seeing the other isn't so bad after all and that eventually leads to this whole slow burn romance that's driving me insane just writing it). So the point of this whole example that got way longer than I meant for it to is
If you're having to write a lot of pointless filler chapters and scenes, try adding another characters POV to mix things up and get a different perspective
