Speaker: Allison Gorner

Great stories have characters the reader feels connected to. But how, as writers, do we do that? To create an emotional response in the reader, the author must create characters with strong emotions. In this workshop we will be discussing two ways to effectively write emotion in your characters: emotional conflict (or internal conflict) and humour. Allison Gorner will share with you some strategies and tips on how to connect with your reader and hopefully make them laugh and cry.
