. Remove filtering words (saw, heard, knew, thought, believed, realized, felt, etc.)

. Be immediate and direct (use voice to pull readers into the character's thoughts & observations -- think judgements)

. Ensure the reader's experience comes from INSIDE the character.

. Don't name emotions. Deep POV describes what the character feels or conveys emotions through direct thoughts.
