Workshop Information:
STORY-BUILDERS! LET’S GET STARTED PLOTTING! Do you have a story in you? Is there an idea or character you want to explore? Here’s your chance to get started with the guidance of a veteran writer and affirmative editor, Alicia Rasley. We’ll start with your idea, and build out from there—explore the characters, organize the plot, outline dramatic events. Here’s what we’ll be doing in this fun and practical workshop:
1. Developing your story through the Three Plotlines (External, Internal, Interactional)
2. Channeling your characters and discovering their journey, goal, and strengths/weaknesses
3. Changing the characters through events of the plot
4. Intensifying the conflict and character change
5. Ending the story with drama and resolution
