Sometimes when we look at what we\u2019ve written we realize we\u2019ve created characters who are basically all some version of ourselves. It\u2019s like multiple clones of the writer only with different haircuts. Or we find that we have a group of wonderful, quirky characters but that our protagonist is dry and uninteresting, exactly the kind of person you\u2019d dread getting stuck next to at a dinner party. In this session we\u2019ll talk about some of the problems inherent in constructing character and some of the strategies that are useful in crafting characters who are unique and real and three-dimensional.
