Showing character emotions: A Creative Writing Course to Show Don't Tell tecnique, Character Expression and Emotional Responses

by Luca Panzarella

A unique creative writing course that will teach you how to craft Realistic Character Expressions and Emotions! How do you convey an emotion? The answer to this question is a very complicated challenge for us writers, perhaps the most difficult one of all of that’s why we can’t take it lightly. Of course, we could “And then, the main character in our story... died”. Was that clear? No doubt. But did we stir anguish in the reader? Fear? Awe? Concern? Well, no, not really. And the truth is, it’s not easy to convey an emotion to the reader, in the same way that it’s not easy to talk about it in real life. How do you show and make people feel anxiety, depression, anger, desire, boredom and many other emotions that we will describe in this course? How do you make the scene in which the character is feeling such an emotion a realistic one, and how do you make your reader feel it—almost like they’re living in that moment themselves? We will compare sentences that “tell”, or describe an emotion, with those that “show” it and that trigger the same feelings in us who are reading. We will make a detailed list of the bodily reactions that each emotion provokes in us. Because that’s the only way you can learn how to really get your reader excited. Are you ready to begin this journey? I can’t wait! Learn Create a three-dimensional character with realistic emotional responses Show and make reader feel emotions, like anxiety, depression, anger, desire, boredom and many other Write emotional, realistic scenes in your novel Put into practice the "show, don't tell" technique BONUS VIDEO Easy as it buy the book, check the last page and get a video course for free!

Another quick read with a comprehensive explanation of human emotions and how to show them in your novle.
Useful.

[Levi Borba · Rating 5 out of 5]

A book to be used as some sort of Thesaurus, with dozens of emotions and mental states translated to body reactions. Good for applying the idea of "show, not tell".
