24: Turning Research into
Storytelling
We will start by thinking about the relationship between
imagination and research, and then dig into ways to make sure you
root your story in real material without getting too swamped
by the historical facts. We will explore the research process,
planning, writing process and writing techniques that will help
your story come alive.
November
28: Revising & Editing
The most important stage of writing is actually
rewriting. You should acquire plenty of tips for diagnosing
problems, tools for solving them, and ideas on how to set about
the revising process. Attendees are invited to send in
questions about their own drafts ahead of time, by November
22.
If you are unable to attend the live event, pay via the
website and send us a message requesting a link to the
recording.
