Psychic Distance - the comic version
The mega-talented Jody-Klaire took part in one of the 6 week online self-edit courses I run with Emma Darwin. In common with most of the people who take this course. J-K was blown away by John Gardner's concept of Psychic Distance, which he explores in his book, The Art of Fiction. In fact, this exploration of how close - or distant - you can get from your characters' voices and internal landscapes is so powerful, we devote a whole week of the course to it.
