Course Description

Join Wattpad Star Lindsey Summers, author and Wattpad Star, for a short class on how to write a character study. This is an essential part of your creative writing toolkit.

It can be daunting to start with a blank slate. Lindsey will share her favorite tool for breaking writer's block and getting started in the writing process: the character analysis.

  • This creative exercise will help you create characters that are unique and true to your writing style.
  • This is also a practical exercise giving you a starting point for your story, poem or novel.

Once you have a character analysis, you can use it for any fiction you wish!

This class will help you see your everyday interactions and simple interactions as starting points for creating a unique character. This class is ideal for writers who are just starting to write, as well as those who wish to expand their creative writing skills.

This class is presented in collaboration by Wattpad, the largest global community for writers and readers. Want to learn more about writing classes? You can find more classes at Wattpad Stars like Writing for Online Engagement with Rebecca Sky or Writing for Consistency With Ninya Tippett.
