Elevate and Polish Your Short Story
About this Event
August 28, 29, 30 (3 Sessions)
10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Good news! It’s time to pull that short story out of your drawer. You know the one. It’s
the story you’ve already started, the one you keep thinking about, the one you wish
you could finish. Inspired by Emily Carr’s writing, we’ll think about what’s burning
inside you that wants to be written. We’ll ponder your core idea, learn more about
your main character, step back to look at the flow, add vivid details, and reflect on the
requirements for a great ending (even if it’s a quiet ending).
Meet Your Instructor:
Sue Scott, BA, MSc, has been an adult educator for over 40 years and she has
studied the craft of writing for over 20 years. Sue considers Robert McKee’s
principles of STORY to be a foundational writing influence, and she has received
numerous finalist and semi-finalist placements in highly-regarded international
screenwriting competitions. Sue is delighted to be revisiting her earlier passion for
short story writing, and she welcomes all writers into a supportive writing space.
Sue’s workshops are fun, informative, and inspired by life’s magic moments.
