Create Compelling Characters


Presenter: Ariella Moon, Author, YA 

Description: 
In this interactive writing lab, writers will unearth their character’s goals, motivations, and conflicts (GMC). Then with greater understanding, develop their character’s arc, write from a Deep Point of View, and use dialogue and other literary means to reveal character and create reader empathy and loyalty. Discover how to use archetypes, but move beyond them. Bring a printed copy of the first chapter or ten pages of your novel or memoir manuscript.
