Characters Welcome

Come join me next week at Savvy Authors, where I will be leading a new and highly interactive workshop for writers who want to get up close and personal with their main characters. This is a different type of character workshop, one that goes beyond general wisdom and into an open dialog where your character is the one doing the talking.

The workshop will start off with some general strategies, then ask you to introduce yourself (as your character). I (and the other participants) will ask you pointed questions, not only to find out more about you, but also to try to bring out your voice. During the last two weeks of the class, you will then have the chance to write and post a section of your story (novel or short) that I will critique with an eye to how well your character comes to life.

Starts February 11th
