Accessible to beginners and meaty enough for
experienced writers, this workshop will show you how to use dialogue to
make your stories more dynamic and dramatic. Whether you’re writing fiction or memoir, you need to be able to write
great dialogue and need to know how to mix your dialogue and narrative so that
your characters come alive. Come to this workshop and learn both the
basics and the best tricks of the trade so that you'll never write a lifeless
scene again.
Workshop leader Brian Henry has
been a book editor and creative writing instructor for more than 25 years. He
publishes Quick Brown
Fox, Canada’s
most popular blog for writers, teaches creative writing at Ryerson University
and has led workshops everywhere from Boston to Buffalo and from Sarnia to
Charlottetown. But his proudest boast is that he has helped many of his students get their first
book published and launch their careers as authors.
