Class Description Stories are made up of many elements—some intangible: theme, plot, POV, voice, tone; and some tangible: people, places, and things. In this three-part workshop, we’ll deal with the latter. How do we write about people—both real and fictional? How do we bring the world of our stories alive—either creating a fictional one or placing ourselves or our characters in a world that already exists? How do we animate the inanimate—using things to tell a story or writing about things that tell a story? Through examples and exercises, writers of both fiction and nonfiction will explore the world of the substantial. Our goal: to create writing that balances the tangible with the intangible for more vivid storytelling. Disclaimers This class is held in person.

A stranger, Asta Cadell (Deborra-Lee Furness) limps into an outback town on a crippled motorcycle. Trapped while she waits for repairs, Asta stays at the garage of Tim Curtis (Tony Barry). The outsider soon discovers that Tim’s young daughter Lizzie (Simone Buchanan) has been raped by a group of men. Some women are intimidated, others make excuses and the law looks the other way – but nothing ever changes. Attacked herself, Asta is drawn into the struggle of the town’s women for safety and dignity. Emboldened by her, Lizzie lays charges and all hell breaks loose. The women rise up, but resistance is never that easy or that simple.
