Greetings from Thoughttree!

It's September already - time for new beginnings and fresh challenges...so, come and join our next inspiring Writing Workshop: The Craft of Plotting Fiction

Consider this premise for a story: 'Four siblings go through a magical wardrobe into another world.' Intriguing, admittedly - but there's no plot. Add: 'They must defeat an evil queen who is enslaving the land.' This is the story's motivation. With it comes the possibility of choices, obstacles and unpredictable outcomes. In other words, a plot! How might you develop your idea for a story into a series of events and actions?

We'll dip into some great novels for inspiration and try out some step by step techniques for developing plot. As always, there'll be time to write and to share ideas in a friendly and supportive atmosphere.

Date: Saturday 10th September 2016
Time: 10am -12.30
Place: The Village Paintpot Café, 55,Main Street, Elloughton, Brough HU15 1JP
Cost: £18 (including excellent coffee and cake!)
All levels welcome. Please book asap as spaces are limited.

Hope to see you there.

Best wishes

Deb and Ali
