Every character you include, no matter how minor, or however brief their appearance, must serve the story you're telling.  Nobody should be in a scene for mere decoration or as a prop. 

There are no minor characters. 

Every character in your story needs to be made use of or let go of. 

In today’s episode of Writer Unleashed, we'll talk about how to craft minor characters who have a major impact. And I’ll give you some examples to drive it all home.
