Do you have a backlog of abandoned stories and essays? Have you revised the life out a piece, trying to make it perfect? In this workshop, we’ll discuss some less common ways of waking up your prose and unlocking narrative energy. Toward this end, we’ll examine thrilling turns in a few stories and essays. Some of the strategies we’ll cover include: finding and fanning hot spots; using transitions as transport; opening up point of view; modulating register, diction, and rhythm; and making space for rough edges and mischief.
