How Fiction Works.
Claire Keegan will look at the structure of a narrative and talk about time and pace, tension, character and rewriting. She’ll talk about sentences and how paragraphs work - and how to manage dialogue. She’ll lead you through the shape of a story and talk about embracing the limitations of the art form. Fiction isn’t analysis or anecdote or summary. At the heart of fiction is the trouble we get into - and how well or badly we cope. And how we suffer the consequences. Keegan is a well known teacher. In Ireland, her intensive fiction weekends, once advertised, book out overnight.
Held in the Goodman Fielder Room, Aotea Centre.
