This class is a part of “The Novelist’s Toolkit” Class Package.
Neither readers nor writers want a story to stall, sputter along, or sprint ahead at breakneck speed.
Every part of your story has an appropriate pace, but how do we find it? Hint: It’s not all in the plot. The right narrative pacing comes from decisions large and small, from word choice and sentence structure to scenes and description to action and character arcs. In this three-hour class, we will explore all of the factors that affect the speed of the story and practice various ways to modulate pacing so that the reader is pulled along compellingly from beginning to end.
TAKE THIS CLASS IF
- You’re writing a novel or short stories.
- You’ve stalled at the dreaded middle of your novel.
- You’re bored with your fiction project.
- You want to better understand what keeps a story moving.
The deadline to register for this class is Friday, October 21 at 5:00 PM CDT.
