Online via Zoom, Wednesdays, July 8-29, 6:30-8:30 PM, PT
Even if you don’t want a mustache-twirling bad-guy in your book, you still need someone (yes, a sentient someone) to be a worthy adversary for your hero. In this four-week class, we’ll learn the components of opponents, and how your antagonist may hold more keys to your hero than you think.
