Culture can be hard to define, but it influences everything from the language we use to the beliefs we hold dear to how closely we stand to the people we’re talking to. In this masterclass, you’ll learn how to give your stories greater cultural depth by exploring the building blocks of culture, developing cultural details that are relevant to the story you’re telling, and using them in tandem with your plot, characters, and themes to add richness and realism…whether you’re writing about a world you’ve invented or the couple next door.
Note: This class will focus on the craft of writing culture as a whole, and will not delve into tools for writing or researching specific cultures that are not your own.
