It
Takes One to Know One! Over
the past 15 years award-winning author Michele Chynoweth has worked with a
variety of editors and has developed a tried and true process for developing
characters that's fun, flexible and really works - from coming up with names to
creating profiles that portray your characters physically, emotionally and
spiritually. She will help you develop believable, compelling characters that
readers can really connect with, who make you laugh, cry and care. Part of
that, of course, entails writing dialog that isn't contrived but natural, isn't
boring but memorable. A screenplay writer as well, she'll even teach you how thinking
like a movie director can help! She will include tips on how to write in
various dialects, accents and more when your characters call for it, how
research plays a part, and will take a look at the some of the most memorable
characters of all time.
