USING THE ELEMENTS TO SHARPEN CHARACTERIZATION

OZARK WRITERS LEAGUE (OWL)

For another tool in your writer’s toolbox, try this unconventional approach to character development. As writers, we often put a little bit of ourselves into all of our characters that sometimes results in too much blending of personalities. By assigning an element such as earth, fire, air (wind), or water, to a character, the contrast is sharp. It also improves our understanding as to how our characters interact with each other. So, what are the characteristics of each element? Linda will show you how. This is an interactive session and above all, it’s fun.
