Description
A reader doesn"t want to be told what to think and feel. They want to discover the story along with the characters -- embrace the lessons, experience the pain, rejoice with the victories. The best stories are the ones that invite the reader into the emotional life of the characters, the ones where the readers are invested into a story they can"t put down. But how does an author write emotions that draw the reader in and allows them to experience the story? In this class, participants will learn the different levels of writing emotions, and how to take their writing from surface deep to the kind that engages the heart and touches the soul of the reader.
