UPCOMING WEBINARS:

APRIL 25: How powerful characters drive compelling plots - with janet fox

7:15 PM ET - 9:45 PM ET

If you want to write a story that resonates, is your most important craft focus on character or plot? The most compelling plots derive directly from powerful characters that are driven by deep emotions. This webinar will give the audience the tools to create powerful characters, and from that foundation to develop a rich and layered story.

MAY 2: WRITING THROUGH GRIEF, CHAOS, AND INSTABILITY WITH JASON SITZES

7:15 PM ET - 9:45 PM ET

There are times in the lives of writers when sitting to put words on paper seems futile. What if life circumstances have us overwhelmed by grief or instability? What if we don’t trust ourselves to tell our stories? In this webinar, we will: 1) Examine writers through the ages who have found inspiration through instability. 2) Work on exercises where we take our characters to places where they must push through impossible situations, raising stakes and tension within our stories. 3) Reflect on our progress in the first part of the year and make promises to ourselves heading into the second part of 2024, with a reminder of what we can control: our productivity. A webinar with personal challenges and exercises to hone your craft.
