What Do Your Characters Think of Each Other?

As we all know, characters are the beating heart of any good story. However, no character is an island. How they respond to other characters is often essential in making your plot work (indeed, this arguably is your plot), so don't be fooled into thinking it's obvious how your characters will respond to one another. Just because you would respond in a particular way to Character A doesn't mean that Character B will respond to Character A in the same way you would. Even though you, as the author, know all the facts about all of your characters, you'll still have your own narrow opinion about what sort of person they are just the same as anyone else. That is why it is vital to know what every character thinks about every other character if you want to create a rich, vibrant and believable story.Fortunately, it's easy to do this.
