Building the Invisible: Characters with Depth and Disability
Workshop Description: Character creation and development goes beyond the arc of your plot. An intriguing personal history helps connect readers to characters. Your plot doesn't need to revolve around a disability for you to include one, and you should! Learn from L.J. Stanton, a service dog handler, invisible illness spoonie, and author, to learn how to build diversity into your writing, round out your characters, and see how doing so can help build a far richer world for your story.
Time & Location: Wrigley Room @ 1:00PM CDT
