Here's a simple one.
Pick a character (any character? Yes, any character. Now, you have a character, and I still have 51 cards in this deck, right? Oh, that's another trick? Okay, back to the writing tricks.)
Got your character in mind?
What is their theme song? When they walk on stage (into the middle of the scene, demanding their bit of time in the limelight), what melody, rock song, or other tune accompanies them?
Go ahead, put your characters to music, and let the rhythm tell in their dialog, the descriptive swatches you drape them in, and so forth.
charms to sooth the muses' breath?
