Fundamentals of Fiction Writing
Discuss the fundamentals of fiction writing at our next Write Right Lunch & Learn workshop on Tuesday, Feb. 14.
Write Right Lunch & Learn
Tuesday, February 14
12:00 noon – 1:00 p.m.
Huntsville-Madison County Public Library
915 Monroe Street
Second Floor Events Room
“Fundamentals of Good Fiction"
Do you understand POV? What about “Show, Don't Tell”? Do you know what a dialog tag is and how to use it? Discuss these and other essential building blocks of your novel.
Presenter: Kira Sinclair, author of What Might Have Been and Bring It On
Kira Sinclair’s first foray into writing romance was for a high school English assignment and not even being forced to read the Scotland set historical aloud to the class could dampen her enthusiasm … although it definitely made her blush. She sold her first book to Harlequin Blaze in 2007 and hasn’t looked back. With seven books currently available, and more on the way, she still can’t believe she gets to make her living doing something so fun. Exploring relationships, why people fall in love and providing readers with “Happily Ever Afters” is her favorite part of the job.
The Lunch & Learn is free of charge and no registration is required. Bring a sack lunch. Drinks and chocolate will be provided. Questions? Contact Mary Moore at mmoore [at] hmcpl [dot] orgor 256-532-5975.
