Voice is something of an enigma in writing.
Agents and editors say they want “fresh voices,” but also say “they know it when they see it.” Teachers talk about the “author’s voice” but also staying true to the “character’s voice”. Where does voice come in when you’re writing in third person, second or first? And can your voice be recognizable throughout a career if your books are very different?
In this class, you’ll…
- Explore voice in all its forms,
- Understand how voice works with story and character,
- Look at how voice is affected by a story’s POV,
- Learn how to create your own voice as an author,
- And harness the power of language to propel not only your author’s voice, but also your characters, your pacing, and your entire book into the hearts of readers.
TAKE THIS CLASS IF
- You’re writing a novel or short stories.
- You want to learn to better understand voice and how it can help you tell your stories.
- You’re trying to make your work stand out to agents and editors.
- You’re trying to make your stories memorable for readers.
The deadline to register for this class is Friday, March 4 at 5:00 PM CDT.
