Informações sobre o curso: No centro de uma boa história são os personagens. Este curso de escritores aspirantes vai descobrir como construir e dar vida complexos, vívidos e inesquecíveis personagens. Nós vamos estudar as escolhas que um escritor faz para dar vida aos personagens no papel e fazer exercícios escritos com o intuito de desenvolver uma variedade técnicas de escrita e de pré-escrita para criar uma variedade de personagens. Iremos aprender como usar nossas próprias experiências de vida e as pessoas que conhecemos (e como não usar!). Em seguida, desenvolver a vida interior (pensamentos e sentimentos) e o exterior (aparência, hábitos, comportamento) para nossos personagens e ver como isso pode nos levar a histórias ricas e mais interessantes. Vamos dar um sopro de vida dentro dos nossos personagens e deixa que eles nos surpreendam.

This course helped a great deal. I can honestly say that a step in knowing how to create a believable character. Also, it helped me realize the difference in the different point of views through which a story can be told, and I discovered my favorite and my weaknesses in it. Safe to say the feedback from the assignments played a big part. Thank you and to all the other learners who sent me feedback.
Somtimes the assignment instructions were hard to understand.
Good videos. Lots of material for consideration. Good assignments! I really enjoyed stretching my comfort zone a bit . Particularly in the last exercise. Jumping from 1st Person to Omniscient POV. Had not given point of view so much brain time!!
This course helped sharpen my noticing skills. The suggested reading is immensely helpful. The feedback is invaluable and I will be going back to some of those to transform those exercises into short stories. Thank you so much for the public access to this course! I am indebted to you. A MOOC is truly a life transforming invention, giving people the tools to improve on their skills. I can't imagine life without a MOOC! My goodness!
