Class: Crafting Characters Online Workshop (again!)

-

If you missed my character class in April, I will be teaching it again on Saturday, May 22th from 4 pm - 5:30 pm EST/1 pm - 2:30 pm PST. It is a free virtual workshop with SCRiB LAB on Crafting Characters.

Class Description: Characters drive the movement in any story. This workshop will explore this through prompts and questions meant to drive into understanding your character. What are their motivations, wants, fears? How they act and react in the situations you are placing them in? Then explore how this fits into the plotting process.

Sign up here and check out other upcoming workshops and virtual writing halls SCRiB LAB is hosting here!

Your readers don't have to like your protagonist, your protagonist doesn't have to be the "good guy," but they do need to be compelling. This is a prompt-focused writing workshop to help you build the strongest main character you can. Come ready with your protagonist and your preferred tools to write!  The workshop is virtual over Zoom on July 22nd 2:00 pm-3:30 pm Eastern/11:00 am-12:30 pm Pacific  Sign Up This is a free virtual workshop through SCRiB LAB.  Find out more about this and other free writing workshops and resources on their website!

Promot 36:  For speculative fiction writers: What would it look like for you to write a queer-normative world or society? Does that change how you write your characters? For fiction writers: What time is your story set in? How do your characters' identities shape their experience? Prompt 37: Think of a role or character archetype you have never seen a character who is LGBTQIA+ fill and rectify that.  Prompt 38: How do your characters define family?

What are the things that bring the most joy to your character?
