Writing in first person is an exciting opportunity to explore one character’s deepest secrets and drives. But how do you create an interesting world, and other believable characters, if we’re trapped inside one head? We’ll explore successful authors’ use of first-person voice and identify specific techniques you can use in your own fiction.

Feedback on your first-person POV scene work is included.
Class Format
Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.

The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter. You will also be given simple instructions on how to create a PDF of all your discussions along with our privacy and data retention policy.

This class far exceeded my expectations. First person POV can be more than difficult. Amy offered lessons with to-the-point homework and feedback that worked for me. Thanks.
