"F. Scott Fitzgerald said: “Character is action.”
Characters do not operate in a vacuum. Their actions usually involve other people, and these interactions are what make up scenes. Full scenes, half scenes, and narrative passages are the building blocks for constructing a unified story line."
Ok, I guess he means that we are describing characters, and all characters have their actions and the motives behind the actions. What we need to do is making the characters and their motives "relatable" or "care-able," so when readers read they will find they care about these people and want to find out what happen next.
Easier to say than done.
