Crafting a Complete Story – Where to Start your Story @ Centralia Timberland Library
Jan 13 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

A great story must start strong to get the reader’s attention. Each novel’s beginning must be a balancing act of description, backstory and action. Participants in this workshop will learn how much backstory to include in their novel, how to identify essential establishing information, and how to effectively drop their readers into the action.

This is the first of a four-class workshop series taught by local author Lindsay Schopfer. Although these classes work best together, attendance for all three classes is not required
