[close] Are you an author who wants to create credible, compelling characters? I will be holding an author chat March 4-8, 2013 inspired by my new book "The Art of Character." Even if you haven't read the book, please join the conversation. We'll talk about common questions authors face when developing characters for novels, screenplays and TV scripts, as well as any other writerly challenges. Also, please visit my website www.davidcorbett.com to read excerpts from "The Art of Character." Thanks and I hope to see you back here March 4!

[close] A discussion around street photography with great books as the reference point. Street photography speaks to the human condition, and every one of us have a different view of what it is, and can be. I'm hoping that every street photographer will, in seeing the work of others, find a refreshing new view for their critical eye. These great books that are historical references, I believe, can make us better at our craft. For me, street photography covers a broad spectrum of photography, that also embraces architectural landscape, photojournalism, and humanist photography. We each envision different styles of street in our own mind. I'm hoping that each of us can offer their own ideas around the subject 'street photography'. Once a small group is established, I'm hoping that we can occasionally review some of these books together.
