Create complex and believable characters for crime, thriller and mystery fiction – whether victims, villains, investigators, or random passers-by with facilitator Charity Norman. Explore techniques to know your characters and walk in their shoes as they develop. We’ll talk point of view, dishonest narrator, plus challenges of revealing character through dialogue, behaviour and thoughts. Ex-barrister Charity Norman was born in Uganda, raised and worked in the UK, and moved with her family to Aotearoa New Zealand in 2002. Her eight novels to date include BBC Radio 2 Book Club choices, Richard and Judy and World Book Night titles, finalists in the Ngaio Marsh and Australian Ned Kelly Awards, and they have been translated into various languages. Remember Me won Best Novel in the 2023 Ngaio Marsh awards; her eighth, Home Truths, was released last year. Charity was recently named by The Listener as among the ten bestselling New Zealand authors of the past decade.
The workshop costs $30 and includes morning tea. Registration required https://www.hamiltonbookmonth.com/walking-in-stolen-shoes-crime-workshop
