Have you ever read or watched a story that was okay, but something seemed to be missing?

Are you currently writing a story and struggling to determine the most believable way for your characters to interact?

Does one or more of the scenes in your story seem out of place?

Do you want to leave your audience with a feeling of having experienced a complete story?

The Dramatica Writers Group in San Francisco is for writers of all genres who want to improve their storytelling skills by using the Dramatica theory and software.

At our Dramatica meetups, we will discuss and learn Dramatica Theory, learn how we can apply that theory to our writing projects.

    "I grew up on myths and fairy tales and became a die-hard fan of both Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung in college. Now that I'm writing, I'm naturally drawn to Dramatica."
