Writers considered the nature of memories today.
Writers read the short story "Bullet in the Brain" by Tobias Wolf.
Writers were reminded that characterization can be Direct or Indirect. Direct characterization tells the readers facts about a character. Indirect characterization is a form of "showing;" the reader infers from the text, a characters actions and reactions (as well as how characters react to others), and to other elements.
HOMEWORK: Writers are to make two lists for an imaginary character. One list is what the character remembers; the other list is what the character doesn't remember.
