Workshop 1 – Character is Key

Story centres around character, their hopes, goals, triumphs, fears, and failures. Readers love a good character, but they’ll reread (and reread!) a great character. Join Natasha for the ten ways to deepen your character, and turn them from good to great.
Workshop 2 – The Business of Writing
January 17, 2024, 7 – 9pm MT (online)
You’ve attended the query writing workshops, you’ve sat in on the editor and agent workshops, but the question—what’s required to turn a passion for writing from a hobby to career—lingers. Join Natasha for a candid discussion on what it takes to survive (and thrive) in the publishing industry.Register by September 27, 2023 at writersguild.ca.
