Develop your characters through their relationships. Show how they interact with other characters. If one character is shy, show how they behave around an extroverted friend. You can also give them a backstory. Maybe a character was once bullied, and that experience shapes their current actions and decisions in the story. By fleshing out these aspects, you make the characters more engaging.
