Donald Maass, New York literary agent, author, and fiction instructor, will offer a one-day workshop in Portland on Saturday, June 10, 2017:
The Emotional Craft of Fiction: How to Write the Story Beneath the Surface.
Writers might disagree over showing versus telling or plotting versus pantsing, but none would argue against the idea that that if you want to write strong fiction, you must make your readers feel. The reader’s experience must be an emotional journey of its own.
On Saturday, June 10, veteran literary agent and expert fiction instructor Donald Maass will teach exactly how to take your reader on that visceral and emotional journey.
Fee for the workshop: $150, payable to OWC
Date, time: Saturday, June 10, 2017, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Location: Oxford Suites, Jantzen Beach
Donald Maass is the author of more than 16 novels. He now works as a literary agent, representing dozens of novelists in the science fiction, fantasy, crime, mystery, romance and thriller categories. He speaks at writer’s conferences throughout the country and lives in New York City.
