Page Turner: a workshop on building narrative momentum led by guest author Emily Gray Tedrowe

Join the Driftless Writing Center in hosting Award-winning author Emily Gray Tedrowe as she leads a workshop on building narrative momentum in Viroqua, Wisconsin.

Saturday, March 1, from 10:00am to 12:00pm

Vernon County Museum and History Center, 410 S Center Ave, Viroqua, WI 54665

It’s what we all dream of  hearing when someone reads our work: “I just couldn’t put it down!” But how does a writer build the quality of narrative momentum into a piece of fiction or nonfiction? What strategies can we learn from published work that might unlock ideas for our own pages? In this workshop, we’ll look at several examples that demonstrate propulsive action and story. We’ll consider how plot, character, and POV work together to ensure a  driving impetus in fiction, memoir, and creative nonfiction. In-class writing exercises as well as discussion of texts will give participants the chance to understand and practice how “page turners” become reality. Bring a notebook or your laptop, and let’s gain momentum together.
