Grackle Image by Charles Wallis.
This workshop will analyze dialogue as written, as well as what is churning underneath. Writers will be led through generative exercises aimed at discovering what is hidden inside the hearts of their characters, and how to go about saying it…and almost saying it. Writers of all genres are welcome!
