There's a lot of exciting events and changes coming up for the Doña Ana Arts Council. Executive Director Greg Smith and Gallery Manager Penny Peace will be on to talk about them this morning.
In this episode of “Think Again”, author Peter Goodman offers a delightful peek into some of the mental and emotional processes involved in creating the characters in his recent novel The Moonlit Path.
His historically accurate tale, set in Oakland, California in 1914, gives life and voice to an engaging 32 year old woman, an artist. His main character, Katherine, convincingly reflects through her eyes and experience, her take on her personal life and on the society and the world around her. Goodman offers a rare glimpse into the process of what creating a fictional character looks and feels like, from inside the author’s own head and heart. Fun and thought provoking. Jorge Contreras is a law professor at the University of Utah, specializing in the areas of intellectual property law, technical standardization, and antitrust and science policy.
