In this workshop, we'll do some brief guided-ideation/writing exercises designed to help you learn about the characters you're writing about -- whether in fanfic or original fiction -- by acts of guided imagination with particular attention to sensory details. This is a material-generating workshop, which works well whether you have established characters, or just the merest sense of a person you'd like to explore through writing. Please come prepared with writing materials of your choice, and at least some idea of what character you'd like to work with during the 90 minute session. Between exercises there will be some opportunity to read aloud and hear (positive) feedback about your results.
Limit: Nine participants in each session
