Elements of Style: A Novel Writing Workshop 11/20 1:00-3:00pm

How many times have you found yourself struggling with point of view, limited by that first person narrative perspective, or dizzied by that third person omniscience in which you tend to jump from head to head? What’s more effective, present tense or past tense? When writing dialogue, how natural should it be to everyday speech, and how do you know when your characters talk too much? When is description too much description? In this hands-on workshop, we’ll answer these questions and more!

$20 - Seating is limited. Reservtions Suggested
