Writer-in-Residence Workshop: Writing Mighty Girls & The Heroine’s Journey
Presented by The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County at Cheviot Branch - Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library Cincinnati, OH
What does it mean to write strong characters—and girls, specifically? In this workshop, we’ll begin by unpacking different forms of historically feminine strength, from compassion and mercy to persistence and determination. Then we’ll launch into a discussion of the heroine’s journey, as described by Gail Carriger in her book, The Heroine's Journey For Writers, Readers, and Fans of Pop Culture . This journey, in comparison to the traditional Hero’s Journey, is about building community and networks of allies, and of finding strength together at the climactic moment. Participants will leave with a better understanding of the Heroine’s Journey—and be able to spot it in stories both contemporary and ancient—as well as a treasure trove of ideas to play with as they reimagine what it means to be a hero. About Intisar Khanani Intisar Khanani grew up a nomad and world traveler. She has lived in five different states as well as in Jeddah, on the coast of the Red Sea. Previously, Intisar wrote grants and developed projects to address community health and infant mortality with the Cincinnati Health Department, which was as close as she could get to saving the world. Now she focuses her time on her two passions: raising her family and writing fantasy. Intisar is the author of The Sunbolt Chronicles, and the Dauntless Path novels, beginning with Thorn. Her novels, A Darkness at the Door and Memories of Ash were both Kirkus Review picks for Best Young Adult Fantasy Novels of the Year. She is deeply honored…
