One of my favorite aspects of writing is perspective. Stories that capture my attention and make me want to keep reading are those that effectively tell the story through a character’s eyes, or, from a character’s perspective.

I also think perspective–or the ability to see through another’s eyes–is something we need to practice more in the real world.

In my article titled “Focus on Perspective” (September/October issue of Southern Writers Magazine,) I write about perspective and I’ve provided a couple of exercises to demonstrate.

Here’s a bit of a teaser.

The magazine, as always, is full of excellent articles with writing tips, author interviews, social media, etc. If you subscribe, the online issue is available now. I received my hard copy in the mail today.
