How to incorporate trauma into your characters - responsibly! We'll cover using trauma to build well developed characters, how to do so with sensitivity to marginalized communities, how to educate yourself, as well as some meta discussion about how authors' identities can shape our approach to writing traumatic events. Come with questions, ready to listen, and we'll also have a handout with a list of recommended resources. DISCLAIMER: We may address or reference topics that might be challenging for young or sensitive audiences, including but not limited to different types of abuse, assault, and victimization, though we will not go into unnecessary detail.
