Extraordinary People: The Craft of
Character Creation
Most readers look for stories about inter-
esting people doing fascinating things in
the most surprising of ways they’ll always
remember (as opposed to stories about
ordinary people doing ordinary things in
the most ordinary ways they’ll soon forget).
Designed for writers of any skill level, this
course shows you how to populate your fic-
tion with compelling and memorable people,
both heroic and villainous (and everything
in between). Through a combination of
lectures, in-class exercises, discussion and
homework, you’ll learn to create believable
characters your readers will care about by
not only exploring the best ways to drama-
tize how they look, feel, think, and talk, but
also by what they believe, want, and do.

Writing Brilliant, Engaging and
BELIEVABLE Dialogue NEW!
You could have a great plot, but if the people
in your story sound like robots reading from
your outline the audience can’t connect.
Dialogue is a delicate art within the craft,
and involves a keen ear, a sense of rhythm,
a grasp of story-logic and an understanding
of subtext. By studying examples from vari-
ous works and practising in-class and doing
assignments at home, you will first gain an
understanding of what effective dialogue is,
and then learn to create it. By the end of the
course, you will know how to write dialogue
“from the inside out”; distinguish between
“real” and “interesting” dialogue; engage in
eavesdropping to “hone the ear”; practise
writing like an actor (using objectives and
tactics); understand the difference between
“story logic” and “character logic”; and use
value shifts to heighten intensity. You are
encouraged to bring a desire to learn and
experiment. This course is relevant for new
as well as experienced writers.

Some Words from the Taxman
Courses designed primarily for
recreational or general interest
purposes are subject to applicable
taxes.
AVOID CANCELLATIONS — REGISTER EARLY
Courses that don’t meet the minimum number of participants get
cancelled. That’s why we encourage you to register early. Course
cancellation decisions are usually made two weeks before the
course starts, so it’s a good idea to register before then.
