Confluence Workshops Presents:
Writing Characters That Drive Plots Wild


Learn a practical approach to developing a hero or heroine, a villain, and a teacher or sidekick. This is a hands-on writing workshop focused on making your characters so riveting, endearing, frightening, or intriguing that readers will love them and need to read what will happen next. Pre-con assignment: Watch Episode IV of Star Wars. (You know the first one with Luke, Leia, and Han Solo.) You are welcome to bring characters you are working on.

Facilitator: Susan Hanniford Crowley, SFWA member, writing teacher, and workshop facilitator for over 20 years

This workshop will run from 5-8 on Friday afternoon, so you must be at the con by 4:30 in order to attend. This workshop is open to Confluence members only.
