Online Writing Workshop - Lian Tanner

Back

A crash course in some important aspects of writing craft, and how to use them to shape and enrich your novel.

DESCRIPTION:

Knowledge of craft is essential to a writer; it's what we use to turn an unformed idea into a story that hooks the reader and keeps them engaged. Used well, it can be a safety net, a mending kit, and a source of creative inspiration. This workshop will focus on some of the most important aspects of craft, including structure, conflict, and cause and effect

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

You will improve your knowledge of writing craft with particular regard to:

  • The three-act structure, and how to use it.
  • The sort of conflict that will make your novel come alive.
  • The intricate dance of cause and effect.
  • The importance of the story question, and how to find your best possible ending.
