Master the Sci-Fi/Fantasy and Horror Story with Belea T. Keeney and Alice Osborn

Learn how to craft and structure stories in some of the most popular fiction genres: sci-fi, fantasy and horror. In this two-session workshop, you’ll have the opportunity to learn and practice craft, POV, characterization, setting, and dialogue for the short story form. For aspiring novelists, short stories give you a place to practice new techniques, experiment with voice, and learn to develop strong scenes. Placing your stories gives you both publishing credits and the chance to earn some money.
