Create compelling romantic relationships in any genre, in this online weekend workshop: lively, friendly, and inspiring. Online. Live. All levels welcome. Worldwide. Two half-days, 24 - 25 February 2024. £65 total.
Whether romance is your driving plot-line or a thread in your story, your characters’ love lives are a powerful source of emotional resonance, narrative conflict, and characterisation.
In this workshop, we’ll explore how to write genuine love rather than a “love interest”, how to integrate it in the plot, and which patterns you love or hate. We’ll also look at writing romantic scenes, and the different strategies for new / developing love versus established relationships.
By the end of the workshop, using new or existing characters, you’ll have drafted an outline of their love story’s pivotal moments, unique features, and pertinence to the plot. You’ll also have drafted 3+ pieces of new writing, deepening both a sense of their unique dynamic and the reader’s connection to them.
Dates: 24–25 February 2024, 10am – 12:30 UK time. (Check the site for your time zone and currency conversion)
