FREE CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOP - December 16, 2014
Tuesday, December 16th, 7-9pm, "Getting to Know Your Characters"
Join writer and Somerville Arts Council Fellowship recipient Whitney Scharer for a free 2-hour creative writing workshop called “Getting to Know Your Characters.” In this workshop, we will discuss ways of describing a character memorably and distinctly, and will explore some tools that help us get to know our characters well before we even put them on the page. We will look at examples (both good and bad) from published stories, discuss the authors’ techniques, and do some guided writing exercises that will help us get to know our characters better and describe them to the reader in compelling ways. The workshop is for fiction writers who are writing in the short fiction or novel form.
Free! At the Center for the Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave, Somerville. The workshop will take place in the conference room. Please email
