Y’all know how I am about characters in a story—they’re one of the most integral parts of any narrative, which is why you have to spend time on your characters for your story to be successful.
This post from the blog Myers Fiction is wonderfully thorough while still being easy to read, understand, and implement. Writing about your characters’ actions rather than just their emotions is so important, both in the development of the characters and to ensure you’re keeping your writing engaging by showing rather than telling. It’s a win-win!
So click the link, enjoy your reading, and let’s all write better characters together!
Happy writing!
