Writing Fiction with Marcia Douglas - The Magic in the Everyday
Sat 21 Oct 2017 to Sat 21 Oct 2017
This INSCRIBE workshop will explore magical realism, or what Cuban writer, Alejo Carpentier calls, “the marvellous real.”

Embracing the extraordinary as commonplace, the workshop will explore the creation and development of magical fiction grounded in the everyday.

Through group discussion and writing exercises, each participant will create a character who exists within a magical realist world and emerges with a distinct identity and voice.

Narrating via the lens of the “marvellous real,” we will sharpen our skills as fiction writers, and learn what it means to give characters life and breath on the page.
