Important for a Beginning Writer to Know
- There is no magic to writing fiction. All the techniques can be taught and I know how to teach them.
- The real mystery of fiction writing lies in the untold characters, plots and landscapes of your imagination! Imagination can't be taught. It must be unleashed. I know how do unleash your imagination and the writer in you!
The Five Ingredients of the Scene: The Building Blocks of the Scene In Fiction Writing
- Point of View: Whose story are you telling? POV puts you inside your main character's head, heart and gut ― you see the world through the eyes of your character.
- Dialogue: One of the fastest ways into character. Think you can't write dialogue? I've never worked with anyone who can't write dialogue, only with people who think they can't.
- Dramatic Tension/Action: You can't have a story without it! Dramatic tension can come from outside the character or from an internal emotion or dilemma.
- Mood: How does your character see a scene? In other words, what the character sees is more important than what you as the writer want to describe.
- Flashback: A scene from the past that informs the present. Once you're in the flashback, you're once again in scene. All of the above applies.
This package consists of three 1 hour sessions. We can meet in-person or on the phone. Phone sessions can be recorded.
