Try using chauling . Buy a chaulking gun and a tube of chaulking and apply it. It's easier, cheap and will last for years.
You can also paint over it.
Dap makes a good window glaze in a caulking tube. I prefer the look of putty when glazing windows but the caulking takes a lot less time and dries faster. You will also need to pick up a caulking gun.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
