empathy

writing a story is hard but it is even harder when you need to make the reader feel empathy for the character in the book so this week i will be writing about how i think a author writes empathy.

the reason the author puts empathy in a book is to make the reader feel the same way the character feels so you can connect to them. empathy is used to make emotions like depressed, sad, and even hopeless. empathy isn't only used to make the reader feel sad there is also happy and joyful.

one way to make a reader feel empathy is to make something really sad happen in the book. like someone really close to the main character dies or gets taken away.you would feel empathy for that character because you would be sad if something like that happened to you. if something like this has happened to you. you would feel alot more empathy because you could relate to this character.in conclusion sadness is one of the many was author make people feel empathy.
