Synopsis

If a story is a narrative of a character’s struggle to achieve certain goals, then how the character behaves is a vital element that defines his/her nature. Thus ‘Characters through Action’ is a workshop aimed at helping writers understand and refine how they depict characters particularly through the use of action. Through a step-by-step process via collaborative and individual exercises, workshop participants will gain ways and means to create more engaging and well-rounded characters when writing fiction.
