We have been asked to form a writers’ group and hold regular meetings at Gondor. As we have done this before and miss the informal contact with other writers, we decided it would be an excellent idea.
The meetings will take the form of a critique group and we will have guest speakers and talks on writing. The first meeting will set out the way the critiques will be done.
We are open to suggestions as the timing and the frequency of the meetings. We are holding the first on Wednesday April 26th at 7pm. Those in attendance can help us decided what will happen from there.
If you are interested in attending, please email me before the 26th. [email protected]
OUR NEXT WORKSHOP: Creating a wondrous setting.
Saturday April 22nd.
Suitable for advanced writers and beginners:
When we read a novel with a graphic description of the setting, we are transported to that place. Setting is the time, place, and mood in which a story takes place. It is often the heart of the narrative. For the reader to be able to relate to the story, you must identify those details in your story that establish the time, place, and the overall mood of the story.
In this workshop, you will be given examples of how that is done and exercises on creating a setting that draws your reader into the world of your story.
