How to build a heroine
About
This masterclass is for any writer who wants to create an intriguing, unique, engaging character - protagonist, antagonist, sidekick, mentor ... heroine.Modern fiction is filled with fabulous, feisty, funny girls and women making their way through the universe. Plucky girl. Cheeky tomboy. Wise crone. Chosen one. Cynical detective. Kick-ass babe. Geek girl. Amazon. And so many more - some beloved tropes, some wholly unique or experimental, some exploring the possibilities of gender, some breaking the world: all compelling.
How do writers imagine them and bring them to life on the page? How do we make them more than archetypes or tropes so they burst off the page and into a reader's imagination?
This full-day masterclass with Dr Kelly Gardiner focuses on the creative decisions, strategies and techniques we can use to create irresistible and memorable fictional heroines, and stories that allow them to shine.
