Hand me the dollar bill I found in your jeans when I searched you." Why do these words create tension? They create an uncomfortable situation for Joey. The sudden movement surprises the reader.

Which sentence is an example of indirect characterization?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Indirect characterization is the process of describing a character through that character's thoughts, actions, speech, and dialogue. An author will use this type of characterization to guide the reader in making their own conclusions about a character.

Indirect characterization strengthens your writing by showing, not telling. For example, you could write your character was “rude,” or show your character blowing cigarette smoke in another character's face.
