About this Event
Plots may drive a story – but great characters are what readers remember.
Join local author Julie Noble for a practical, engaging workshop exploring how to create characters your readers genuinely care about.
What makes a fictional character leap off the page? Often it’s not the big dramatic moments, but the small details: a habit, a flaw, a turn of phrase, a nervous tic or an unexpected vulnerability. In this workshop, Julie will explore how writers can use these revealing details to show rather than tell, building characters who feel vivid, believable and emotionally engaging.
Drawing on memorable characters from fiction, the session will combine inspiring examples with practical writing exercises, discussion and techniques you can take straight into your own work.
Whether you’re working on a novel, short story or simply want to strengthen your creative writing, this friendly workshop will help you create characters readers can connect with, care about and remember long after the final page.
With only 20 places available, early booking is recommended.
