Ron Carlson says, ‘The most undervalued craft device that fiction writers need is empathy. You need to be able to actually imagine what your characters are going through. You’ve got to stay close. When you’re in a story and dealing with people you’re not certain of, or you’ve just come to meet because they’ve stepped into your story, it’s very important to go slow and sit in their chair.’ As Carlson also says, you don’t have to love the people or the characters you write about, but they should be at least as smart as you. Look beyond stereotypes. ― Barbara DeMarco-Barrett
