NOV Main Line Writers - HOOK READERS W/ CONFLICT - interactive writing session

The NOVEMBER Main Line Writers Group meeting - HOW TO HOOK READERS WITH CONFLICT - IN ANY GENRE

Ever read a short story only to get to the end and scream "But nothing happened!"? Ever put a novel down because, in spite of the beautiful language, you just didn;t care? Ever receive this critique of your writing: "I can't put my finger on it but something's missing"?

Beautiful words and well-described characters are important, but to really draw your readers in, the story needs conflict by adding conflict to your writing. Come prepared to write in this interactive writing session led by Julie Duffy, host of StoryADay.org and Main Line Writers Group member. Come prepared to try out the instruction at the session with your own writing.

Our meeting place is Michael's Restaurant Deli in King of Prussia, just north of The King of Prussia Mall on Rt 202. The address is 130 Town Center Road in King of Prussia, 610-265-3265. The meeting officially starts at 7:00 pm but many of us come early (around 6) to eat and socialize a bit - but you can order your meal at any time during the meeting. We use a private room and the acoustics are great. You'll have no problem hearing our speakers or each other.

Just a reminder that you can order a scrumptious meal at Michael's off their extensive menu. We don't get charged for the great room, but Michael's does have the expectation that attendees will order a meal. It is a fair expectation and the meals are very reasonably priced.

Mark your calendar for every third Wednesday of the month. Feel free to tell others and bring a friend or two.

As usual, any questions, please contact me, Gary Zenker, at 610-883-2346 or GaryZenker@aol.com. We are all looking forward to seeing you there.
