Tips for Young Writers 6: Imagine every scene from every character’s point of view.

Imagine every scene from every character’s point of view.
When you’re writing a scene (or a big chunk of your story), try to imagine what all the characters are thinking, not just your hero. This may mean thinking through the same scene a few times, until you’ve thought about every different character in it, but it’ll be well worth it. You’ll end up with an amazingly realistic chunk of story.
