  • Shelf Talks | Episode 4: Obstacles

    Obstacles are inevitable in any endeavor and overcoming them is one of the most challenging aspects individuals have to face. It is believed that literature explores how adversity can be required to learn or modify some aspects of people's lives. Readers can always feel identified with a character, the story's mood, or even the setting, developing empathy, encouraging them to solve their difficulties, and inspiring them to believe in themselves.


    Join Caroll and Ana María as they discuss with the student Ana Julia Florez her insights on one of her favorite books "It ends with us" written by Colleen Hoover, where readers can examine the impact of childhood experiences and the fragile line between past and present.

  • Shelf Talks | Episode 3: Inside a character’s mind

    Have you ever wondered how writers create a character? Characterisation is undoubtedly one of the most relevant elements when writing a story. Making a detailed profile of the characters provides the writer with insights to trace how they might feel or react to different situations. A successful and reliable character possesses a past and a present which are revealed throughout the story. 


    Join Caroll and Ana María as they discuss with the students Valentina Matínez and Emilia Betancourth their inquiry on creative writing processes where they explore how only the writer and the audience really know what is going on in a character’s mind.
