The Writers' Lab


The successful workshops continue with

A CHARACTER WORKSHOP

If you think that it is enough to have a protagonist with a clear goal and an opposing need which relates to the flaw, think again! Or, better, join this character
workshop, and discover

- how to seduce your reader with a truly memorable (and yet believable) main character

- how to design an emotional journey that stands out

- why most plot problems are characters problems and how to fix them

- what to do with antagonists & secondary characters so they really drive stories forward


In this workshop, you'll learnt to use tools from psychoanalytic theory and personality psychology to neuroscience and... FBI profiling!
Saturday 18th March 2023 10am -2pm // online // £35
or
Sunday 19th March 2023 10am -2pm // online // £35

Small groups (3-5 people).
The workshop is for those who are already working on a project (novel, play, screenplay) and have a sense of the characters and the story they want to tell.
