About the Class:
Learn how to ‘meet’ (create) a new character, and get to know them inside and out as you let them guide your story. We will specifically touch on internal conflict, dialogue, and how setting affects characters. Be prepared to imagine, write, discuss, and edit. Most students will leave with a completed short story.
