Christina Englund, author known for her sparse, fragmentary and poetic style that goes straight to the painful core of human experience, leads this evening workshop on building characters that feel alive on the page.
The session looks at how to develop main and supporting characters: their background and history, their deepest fears, their greatest strengths and darkest secrets. You will also explore how dialogue works in writing and how to let characters speak to one another convincingly.
Christina Englund debuted in 1992 with the short story collection "Uden egentlig at sove" and has since written the novels "Slugt", nominated for the DR Romanprisen, and most recently "Den sidste sol". She has many years of experience teaching the craft of writing.
