What&#39;s epistolary writing? Well, it&#39;s writing through letters. But it&#39;s also a lot more than that. As we continue to dive into the concept of Voice, we want to explore the importance and power of the letters that Blue and Red write to each other throughout &#34;This Is How You Lose The Time War.&#34; If you haven&#39;t already listened to our episodes introducing this novella, we recommend you go back and start with Episode 11 (of this season, Season 19)!And if you’ve been reading along with us while listening to these episodes, please let us know on Instagram.
