Workshop Topic: Plotting Characters

“Plot-driven” and “character-driven” are often positioned as opposing methods of fiction writing. But why do these approaches to narrative need to be in opposition? This hands-on workshop takes participants through exercises designed to create compelling and plausible plots using detailed character creation. Whether participants are at the start of a writing project, or somewhere in the murky middle, this approach can help jumpstart new ideas and perspectives to get writers to The End. Participants are encouraged to bring a work-in-progress, their thinking caps, and whatever they need to take notes for themselves.

Pre- Registration is required for this workshop. Register here!
