LOOK AGAIN: SEEING YOUR WORK WITH FRESH EYES WITH ADAM MARSH

Familiarity with one’s own work is common, but at which point does familiarity lead to blind spots and a lack of fresh perspective? In this webinar, we will explore, via practical exercises, ways to see your own works in new ways by drawing from fields such as cinema, psychology, philosophy, and visual arts.

WHAT THE HECK IS AGENCY? WITH LORIN OBERWEGER

You’ve likely heard the term used by agents, editors, or critique group members, but what—exactly—is character agency? Why is it critical, and how do you make sure your protagonist and other characters demonstrate it? If your character starts out as a reluctant figure, one to whom events are happening, how can you find ways to signal that character’s strength and motivation to the reader? As always, come prepared to work and make important discoveries along the way.
