Workshop: Creating Character with Jacinta Halloran
Character is paramount. Once fully-fledged, your characters are intrinsic to your writing life. You’ll care about them deeply and be able to speak confidently on their behalf. In this workshop you’ll discuss some of the great characters of fiction and try to unpick what makes them so memorable. You’ll talk about ways to build a character from scratch and, if there’s time, read and discuss your own character writing.
Duration: 3 hours
Location: Arts Lecture Room 5
