Writing with Francesco...

Writing Workshop with Francesco
£9.00

Following on from his successful first workshop, join award-winning author Francesco Sarti in this workshop and elevate your characters to new heights. Delve deep into the dos and don'ts of crafting backstories as Francesco shares techniques and practices to make them larger than the narrative itself.

With engaging examples and creative exercises, you'll leave with invaluable tips and tricks to create characters that will resonate with readers, whether you're writing a short story or embarking on an epic series of novels.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and seasoned writers, with a focus on SFF authors. However, the concepts can be applied to any genre, enabling you to infuse your characters with a dimension expanding beyond the narrative. Francesco, who has published poetry and short fiction in Italy, is represented by Kate Nash Literary Agency and is currently working on his debut sci-fi novel.

Feedback on Francesco’s last session at The Imaginarium:

“5 out of 5 stars- I loved the workshop. It is a different way of thinking about ideas and fleshing them out, than i normally use and much more linear and intuitive. I came home and continued to work on my ideas. I now can now keep returning to them and expanding them while I finish my WiP. Thank you.”
