Regina McBride’s Inner Lives, Developing Characters Writing Workshop was wonderful and the good news is this: she plans on doing more in Park Slope.

The day-long intensive workshop was an exciting day of relaxation and sense memory techniques combined with  writing exercises. Participants connected in new ways with the characters they’re working on in their fiction or memoir.

Regina McBride, author of three novels, is planning on coming back for another workshop in in Park Slope in May or June.

In the workshop, McBride used relaxation, sense memory, and emotional memory (Stanislavski
acting techniques transformed for the writer) techniques and a variety of exercises, which enabled the writers to make a deeper, richer
connection to the character he or she is creating.

Exercises were followed by writing periods, and opportunities for
people to read and share their work. The atmosphere was safe, with
the focus on exploration.
