    Crafting Memorable Characters


    Do you want to create complex, believable characters that "feel real"? Join Dr. De'Andrea Matthews on September 12, 2015 as she discusses "Crafting Memorable Characters". This session will take a closer look at the elements that create a three-dimensional character, the action that defines those characters, and how you as a writer can get to know your characters best through the character interview.
