There’s nothing quite like using words to create a world that didn’t exist before. In this workshop we’ll do some experiments with fiction writing that demonstrate how invented characters can quickly begin to take on a life of their own.
Guided by Don, participants will experiment with short fiction exercises designed to show how invented characters can quickly begin to take on a life of their own.
Together, the group will explore techniques for discovering character through action, voice, and choice, and discuss how playful experimentation can lead to richer stories and unexpected directions. This workshop invites participants to lean into curiosity and trust the creative process as fictional worlds begin to emerge.
No registration is required, but space is limited. This workshop is geared toward writers of all levels and genres. Please bring writing materials, such as a notebook and pen.
