Heroes with a Thousand Faces [October 6]

Elinor · 2013-08-21T19:49:25Z

Odds are you've studied The Hero's Journey in school or in your writing endeavors. If you're unfamiliar, it is a concept that the journey that every character in every piece of fiction goes through, whether it's Star Wars or Into the Wild, the main character is a twelve year old girl or a sixty year old man. Since character in storybooks is just as, if not more important than in fiction, I would like to invite you all a character development workshop on September 29th. The workshop will last 90 minutes. We'll spend the first half an hour to forty five minutes discussing our favorite characters in fiction and how they go through the hero's journey. Then we'll focus more on characters as they pertain to storybooks, and we'll spend the last bit of the time freewriting. This workshop will occur Sunday, September 29th at 6PM GMT. That's 1PM Eastern, 12PM Central, 11AM Mountain and 10AM Pacific. Please RSVP if you're attending by responding to this post and I'll send you all a PM closer to the date. If you're attending, please bring a specific piece of fiction you enjoy and a specific character to focus on.

I'd like to be there, though I can't quite promise to be very active because iPad doesn't like pads and docs very much, especially when there's other people inside <.<

Hey guys, this crept up on me. I forgot about this and made plans all day, so I'm going to postpone it for one week, to October 6th! Hopefully I can still see you all there.

All our dreams can come true — if we have the courage to pursue them.
