Writers are challenged to create deep and complex characters. We'll discuss where our characters come from, and then work on techniques for “building” them through clustering, interpreting family structures, and placing them in moral dilemmas. Writing exercises will help you discover more about your characters and understand why they do what they do. Suitable for fiction and nonfiction writers at all levels.

Best,
Ellen Schofield, Program Coordinator for NC Writers Network West
