This is an in-person program. Register to receive a reminder, the evaluation, and any resources.

From a great opening paragraph to the final word, a story must tie together to keep the reader believing in the characters and engaged in the plot. Join Anne Lazurko in this interactive workshop to discover how to find and craft the through line of your story. We will explore how to ensure that every element contributes to the work and its meaning. Come prepared to write and share and discuss as we discover the heart of your story. 

This program is offered in partnership with the Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild.
