Do you freeze when you hear the word “structure”? Wonder why you can’t get published or why your second act is sagging? Crafting a tale for the stage, essay, short story, book, pilot or movie is a tall order for anyone and without firm footing, your feet are as good as clay. Whether you’re writing an angsty teen romance or a thriller set in outer space, there’s a set of basic principles of writing that will help you consistently arrive at “the end.”
In this one-day structure clinic, Moth Host will help you take true personal stories and apply the toolset of the scribe to give your tale a rock-solid spine and compelling arcs.
Through in-class exercises and improv games, you’ll learn the essential elements of a great yarn such as beats and turns that propel your story forward to keep your audience on the edge of their seat.
By the end of class, you will have learned the eight essential elements that will get you to a satisfying story of any length. This class is great for all genres and no prior storytelling experience is required.
