writing

Whatever the stakes we're trying to create, if the reader isn't feeling it, we're not doing our job as novelists. We're going to examine big stakes and big tension by considering those scenes that make the spine tingle! It can be a real challenge to convey big feelings across the page and really communicate them viscerally to a reader. Especially when we're going for fearful, intense, creepy, or dark scenes when we all know it's going to work out just fine for our hero--she is the HERO, after all! A master storyteller will have readers feeling it just the same. Register for this creative writing workshop to take your protagonist's stakes to new levels.
