The Re-re-read: Craft Talks on Classic Literature
A fiction writer and recovering academic seeks craft lessons in classic literature. All works are in the public domain and available on https://www.gutenberg.org. The talks are 5-10 minutes, perfect for today's on-the-go author. Earlier and even more pedantic versions of these talks are available on my blog, swerveandvanish.blogspot.com.
The podcast is currently on hiatus, but please enjoy the archived episodes!

Having trouble portraying your characters as complex beings? Want to reveal their many layers over time, instead of in a boring info dump? Learn how Dostoevsky characterizes several people at once by having one character consider and reconsider another--just like real people do.
