Pamlico Writer's Group
How do you develop memorable characters, from your hero to your bad guys (who are people too!)? How do you make them leap off the page and land in a life or death struggle? How do you avoid TSTL (Too Stupid to Live) Syndrome?
We’ll talk about that and what agents and publishers who specialize in mysteries are looking for. Make sure you bring samples of your work for discussion!
Come and learn from a seasoned professional how to capture your characters on the page and your reader’s attention until the very last page.
Spring writer's workshop
June 9th, 2018, from 9am to 12pm
