Adult Writing Workshop: Constructing Scenes in Fiction and Memoir
A gripping or quiet scene in a story can be equally compelling. As a writer, getting that moment onto the page, however, can be frustrating. Should you “show” or “tell” what happens? Is the scenic moment witnessed by—or felt by—your narrator (memoir) or your character (fiction)? In this workshop, with a nod to author Vivian Gornick’s The Situation and The Story, we’ll explore several ways in which effective scene-making uses both showing and telling. We’ll discuss how/when to choose one method and not the other, explore fascinating scenes by several authors, and have fun generating our own vivid scenes. By workshop’s end, you’ll have several tools for making a scene to help you move your story forward—or to get started on one!
