In this workshop you鈥檒l learn how to create compelling stories by focusing on the essence of drama: characters who want something specific, and don鈥檛 get it until the end (if then). Through exercises and discussion you鈥檒l learn practical techniques for creating dynamic plots, believable characters, and scenes that matter.</p> <p><a href="https://darylgregory.com/"><strong>Daryl Gregory</strong></a> is an award-winning writer of genre-mixing novels, stories, and comics, including SF, fantasy, horror, and YA.
