Tenets of Novel Writing – G190402
Tenets of Novel Writing covers the basic tenets of novel writing that every new novelist needs to know before jumping into Chapter One. We’ll learn how to choose perspective; create an inner landscape for the protagonist that supports a central story problem; practice writing voice and tone; learn how to write scenes and create natural dialogue. Each participant will be given writing prompts chosen specifically for their protagonist. There will be group discussion and time for questions and answers about how to proceed when the workshop is completed. This workshop is geared to participants on all writing levels who wish to begin a first novel.
- Note: Some courses (especially studio courses and plein air painting courses) can carry an additional material list or expense.
