Workshop - Crafting Great Characters with Pamela Cook

In the words of Atticus Finch: ‘You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view ... until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.’ In this workshop with Pamela Cook you’ll go deep, looking at what makes our characters who they are, how to use their experiences to create a page-turning plot, and how to show their emotions to create empathy with our readers. You’ll examine how to use the character’s backstory to help create tension and find out how wounds and flaws can help create characters your readers will want to cheer on.
