Improving Characterization Across Gender & Sexuality
When: Sat., Feb. 2, 10 a.m.-12 p.m. 2019
Writers, don’t miss J. Rachel Clay’s and Kathleen Kayembe’s Feb. 2 discussion of “Writing With Humanity: Improving Characterization Across Gender and Sexuality.” Held from 10 a.m. to noon at The Lodge Des Peres, 1050 Des Peres Rd, St. Louis, MO 63131, the workshop is free to St. Louis Writers Guild members; $5 for nonmembers.
Their presentation will cover the need for authentic representation in fictional LGBTQIA characters (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning, Intersex and Asexual/Allied), as well as the benefits for the author and work in pursuing that authenticity. Examples and tropes will be explored, with time for questions.
