Join Kris Sinclair in "If Bones Could Talk: Unearthing The Lost Art of Storytelling - Your Expedition Guide to Crafting a Compelling Debut Novel." In this writer’s workshop, we will unearth the hidden treasures of your narrative. Like intrepid archaeologists, we will sift through the sands of your imagination to find the gems buried beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore how to plan and organize your ideas into a cohesive structure, ignite your creativity through daydreaming, and conduct thorough research to breathe life into your characters and worlds. We’ll delve into the art of crafting captivating dialogue, engaging all five senses to enrich your storytelling, and using the essential journalistic questions—who, what, why, when, where, and how—to build a robust narrative framework. By the end of our journey together, you’ll have the tools and confidence to dig into your ideas and draft your debut novel, leaving no bone unturned.
