Folks tend to love the fictitious Cash Blackbear, the protagonist of Marcie Rendon's acclaimed Native crime/mystery series. Cash is endearing, fierce, and often puts herself in vulnerable situations that somehow she manages to take control of. How do we write characters that come to life on the page and endear them to our readers?
In her workshop on September 13, Rendon will lead attendees in writing exercises (and a short theatrical creation) that help demonstrate how to bring characters to life. Bring paper, pens, pencils, and/or your laptop, imagination and bravery. The workshop is recommended for writers of prose (fiction or nonfiction) and folks who write for theater, but all curious and open writers are welcome!
