THE VOICE OF YOUR FICTION - WORKING WITH DIALOGUE AND CHARACTER
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Just like people, stories and the characters in them have voices. Make your prose shout in a workshop that explores character and dialogue, along with point of view and the story's voice. Working through a series of exercises, you'll share your work in a lively discussion of how stories speak from the page.
