Explore and develop your Characters in this inspirational and inclusive session full of practical exercises to help you tighten up your techniques, develop your story and build your confidence. Expect generative writing prompts and to leave the session feeling a better sense of connection with one or more of your characters, and ways of engaging with the others.

[A version of this workshop formed part of The January Writing Resolution, a month-long series for fiction writers.]

Who are these sessions for?

The sessions are for all levels, they are also suitable for beginner writers who would like to step beyond their comfort zone and commit, every day, to the page. The course is dynamic but can be taken at your own pace.

Session facilitator:

Pippa Dunn is an author, teacher & creative facilitator based in East London. As well as writing fiction she also dabbles in stage and screenplays, supports story development for a documentary film company, and leads creative workshops for both adults and children. Her debut novel secured major deals in multiple international territories, and she is currently working on her second book – a gothic fantasy set amid the private cemeteries and public theatres of late Victorian London.

When she's not scribbling in one of her local coffee shops, she can usually be found exploring East London's wild green spaces, or wild spaces further afield in Devon, Derbyshire or Scotland.

“I had not shared my writing before, but Kate & Pippa facilitated a space where it felt comfortable. I received great feedback that has given me the confidence to continue writing and hopefully share my work with a wider audience. I found the experience wonderful and would recommend it to anyone starting their writing journey or just looking to hone the craft.”
