About this event
Tune into this 90 minute panel discussion, hosted by Shuffle Collective and The California Writers Club's San Francisco Peninsula branch. We will hear from a panel of diverse authors from across literary styles and genres on how to write characters and stories that are not from your own lived experience in terms of ethnicity, economic status, sexual orientation or gender identity. We will deep dive into how to do these stories justice and how to avoid common pitfalls such as white washing and cultural appropriation.
