ABOUT LYSSA'S TALK
What makes a fictional character stay with us long after we've finished a book or watched a movie?
Join us for a fun, interactive exploration of how writers create memorable characters and meaningful journeys of self-discovery. Using familiar stories like The Lion King and Finding Nemo, we'll explore how a character's fears, flaws, and beliefs shape their choices—and why watching them grow can resonate so deeply with us.
Then we'll put those ideas into practice by creating a character together, discovering how even a few simple details can become the foundation for a compelling story.
No writing experience necessary—just a love of stories!
