INTEGRATING THE HERO'S JOURNEY WITH GOAL, MOTIVATION, & CONFLICT (GMC)

THIS ONE DAY WORKSHOP, GIVEN BY DEBRA DIXON, IS AFFECTIONATELY KNOWN AS "BOOK-IN-A-DAY"

Debra’s intensive workshop covers the three most important elements of popular fiction: goal, motivation, and conflict (GMC), and how those elements work with the mythic structure of Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey to help writers conceive and create strong plots and compelling characters. This Book-In-A-Day workshop provides the tools writers need to shape a story and create a road map to writing it.

Cost: $75.00

All day event: 09:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Lunch will be provided.
