FICTION EDITING ESSENTIALS – Free Webinar
The point of view goal character is just what the character wants to achieve in that particular scene.
And the reason this is important is that if a character doesn’t have a goal, what are they doing? Without a goal, the scene is going to come across as a little boring, the reader needs to cheer for them to achieve whatever that goal is.

Watch this episode to learn more about the character’s goal.
