"Developing and writing about the Character is the most important thing in fiction writing, without which even a great story lands no where but dust bin", said the teacher on day 5 of the workshop.
"The activity for this weekend is to look around yourself while at cafe, shopping, classroom or walking down the street, notice a person closely with all your senses and write down about it a paragraph", said the teacher collecting his belongings on the table.
"She is extraordinary girl with out of the world gestures. Shining black hair, tucked behing her ears, falling down viciously kissing her hips. Red scarf placed gently on broad shoulders, forming a cross above her breasts. Wearing creamy white trousers with red linings on both sides, traveling through her fleshy thighs to the knees. 'Is the session to be held here' was all she had to say on the very first day in her melodious voice that drew all my attentions, that I have failed to gain back, till date. I have ceased to concentrate on lectures, that anybody would, while she's sitting beside you with fresh scent arising from her hair, that would put any perfume to the shame. It's the first time, I've come across a lady who can possess such unique qualities in utter simplicity", he wrote on first night after the session.
"He's an average looking guy with overgrown mustaches and casually trimmed beard. Navy blue dress pants with white shirt, sleeves half rolled and golden watch adding to her formality. There's nothing particular about him until you see directly into his eyes or talk to him, who appeares to be a kid. Until, once you have spent two days with him, you discover true him, who unfolds himself, slowly, slowly, slowly, yet takes over all your thoughts", she penned down a day before the session.
The other person is too good to be wih me, they thought two hours before the session.
"Exchange your writings with each other, review and comment", said the teacher.
Both exchanged the stories with each other written about fictional characters. Little did they know about the stories they were hiding.
