Writing LGBTQ+ characters into your stories can feel like a minefield. What do all the letters stand for? Who should I write into these stories? And most importantly, how can learning to write queer characters teach you more about characterization in your straight characters, too? This workshop discusses everything from A for Ace to subconscious gender bias in English.
