Workshop From Memory to Character with Jennifer K Dick on 9 Jan 2021

WORKSHOP IS ON Jan 9, 2021, from 14h30-17h France time:

Join me, Jennifer K Dick, for a FICTION WORKSHOP with Strasbourg Write a Story.

From Memory to Character. This generative workshop is designed to help build character-based stories. Breathe life into these new beings you ink into the world, onto your pages where they will emerge and head out on fabulous adventures. But where do characters begin? Some say from questions, others, from recollections of people we have known, seen, or spied on. The goal of this workshop is to sketch, like a studio artist might, a few new characters based on some exercises. (Whether this will be in person or via ZOOM remains to be determined).

New Story THE UNFOLDING out in OBIT

My short story THE UNFOLDING is included in the Australian anthology of  'obit.' - Pure Slush's latest fiction anthology - As Pure Slush explains this book: "OBIT deals with the life and times of Webster Murphy Allen (1925 - 2012) lawyer, philanthropist and all-round good guy ... or cheating bastard, insufferable reprobate and opera-hater. You be the judge, as 22 writers have across 32 stories."
