Fiction Writing is essential to improve learning through writing, storytelling as a mnemonic technique, visual writing, mental palaces, and learning to win arguments. Having Fiction Writing skills and knowledge will undoubtedly help you climb the value and professional job opportunities ladder.
In this 1-day Fiction Writing Masterclass, delegates will gain comprehensive knowledge of writing fiction and how to develop appropriate characters. During this masterclass, delegates will learn how to use dialogue to reveal the story setting and background by knowing the characters and establishing the setting. They will also learn how to effectively deliver the characters and their motivations to the reader in an effective manner.
