Join us this Saturday, August 8, at 10:30a (room open at 10 for fellowship) to hear Betsy St. Amant discuss, "The Art of Subtext: Saying a Lot Without Saying Much At All."
This workshop provides attendees an in-depth look at the art of adding subtext into their stories. The workshop includes multiple examples from published novels and popular TV shows as well as providing exercises for authors to create their own subtext on the spot.
The workshop covers points such as how subtext must be subtle, used sparingly, and if done correctly, how subtext can be a golden ticket for a reader to keep turning pages.
Registration at TicketLeap is required to receive the online invitation. Ticket information in comments.
