Writing Workshop: Writing Plot and Credible Environments

About WorkshopDo you dream of writing novels or short stories? At this workshop, we will review the basic techniques that are a large part of the foundation of many of literature's most gripping narratives. Particular focus will be on plot structure and character building. Along the way, work will be carried out with short writing exercises and concrete examples from both Danish and foreign authors, and there will be time for conversation and questions.
