Would any Scribblers like to book in in advance to the other 3 
workshops?

Tickets would be £8 each unless they have bought one of the bargain 
weekend £30 tickets which are on the latest newsletter?

These are the other Workshops:

Workshop on Setting – Rosy Thornton

“The impression produced by a landscape, a street or a house 
should always, to the novelist, be an event in the history of a
soul, and the use of the ‘descriptive passage’, and its style
should be determined by the fact that it must depict only what
the intelligence concerned would have noticed, and always in 
terms within the register of that intelligence.” 
(Edith Wharton, The Writing of Fiction).

This workshop will explore in a practical context the challenges of 
establishing setting in the mind of the reader.

What is the relationship of setting to character and viewpoint? 
How can landscape be used to reflect mood, heighten emotion 
or enhance dramatic tension? What specific methods may be
employed to conjure setting in the reader’s imagination without 
resort to excessively long description?

Other particular issues may be addressed, according to 
participants’ preferences. For example:

    Writing a story with a foreign setting
    Conveying historical settings
    World-building for fantasy, sci fi or futuristic stories

Participants will be invited to submit in advance (anonymised if 
desired) a sample of their writing in which setting or landscape 
are described; *these will be used as a basis for feedback and 
discussion. Writing exercises will also be undertaken during the
workshop.
