Another day, another writing hack! This one is is for character development, though it can also help with worldbuilding (when the world is like a character!). Basically, when you're developing characters--any character!--consider their family history, in particular their parents. How a person is raised impacts the kind of person someone is, how they approach situations and how they react. Your characters will feel more well-rounded, layered and full if you have in mind where they come from. But it's like an iceberg: most of this won't end up on the page!
