A while back I asked if anyone would be interested in having me run a workshop in The Workshop board on FanLit Forever. The response was a resounding “Yeah, sure.”
Despite the fact I am a rank amateur who has never run a workshop in her life, I’ve decided to go for it. Maybe, with luck, we can talk a published author into coming in and doing it right.
Actually, I’m going to run two at the same time. I’m calling one “Details” and will focus on wording. Not grammar or spelling! We will have to get Pollyanna to run that workshop. By wording I mean things as far flung as where to put a chapter break, how to handle dialogue tags, showing vs telling etc.
The other I’m calling “Story” and will focus on plotting, characterization, etc.
Hopefully we’ll all get something out of this. And if not, I’ll chalk it up to a learning experience.
Both workshops will begin this Monday.
