Join DFW Ready Writers on Saturday, July 13 as we welcome author and speaker Vannetta Chapman, who will talk about adding a touch of mystery to your story:
"With my book
in one hand and my tissues in the other, I realized I was holding my breath
until the very end."
"I LOVE this book!! But I am
nearing the end and don't want this story to stop!! FANTASTIC!!"
"I had to stay up until
midnight to finish because I had to know how it turned out!!!!"
You can have reviews just like
this. How? By adding a bit of mystery to your writing. Regardless the genre you
write in, you can learn how to plant clues and reveal effectively. Bring your
current WIP, and we'll discuss how to complicate your plot, endear your
characters to your reader, and slowly reveal back story. We'll also look at ways
to keep track of those little clues you're sprinkling throughout your
manuscript.
