Do you have the tools to write a character whose identity is different from your own? How might you approach crafting a character with a historically marginalized identity?

In this class, we will delve into the self-awareness and self-reflection that is required of writers who wish to write characters of differing identities, as it is through facing one’s own bias that writers may create authentic and realistic characters and understand what’s at stake in this writing process. Attendees will receive concrete advice on how to approach writing and editing characters who are people of color, LGBTQIA+, disabled, and of different gender identities, sexual and romantic orientations, nationalities, etc. Everything from dialogue to tropic storylines, stereotypes, physical descriptions and more will be covered.
