Developing Character Writers have available to them a variety of methods to reveal their characters. While inexperienced writers often rely on simply TELLING the reader what a character is like, more accomplished writers prefer to SHOW what a character is like.

How an author reveals a character: What a character says. What a character does or does not do. What a character dreams or thinks. What others say about the character. How others react to the character. How the character is described.
