FREE | The Craft of Writing Ghost Stories: a Virtual Workshop with Lisa Moore
November 20, 2021 @ 9:30 am - 10:30 pm EST
Free
About this event
In this workshop, we will discuss character, setting, point of view, imagery, and concrete, sensual detail by employing these elements of prose to create flash fiction ghost stories. We’ll look at what it means to be haunted, how everything we try to bury or repress can crack through the hardened surface of our past. We’ll unearth the contemporary anxieties, fears, injustices and social decay that sift through our walls in iffy, so-so corporeal forms, so fleshily present they can make us shiver.
Please note: This workshop is limited to15 participants maximum. Eligible participants must be WANL Members in good standing. Interested applicants can join WANL by clicking here.
Please continue with the event registration process for full details on what participants must submit to be considered eligible to attend.

Please note:
The Valley of Writers team scours the web looking for the most inspiring, elevating, and accessible events that we can share as a service to our readers.
The big idea is that in a virtual arena, more people can participate. Geographical boundaries matter less.
The events we list are virtual and can be attended by writers from wherever they are in the world.
Unless otherwise stated, we are not affiliated with and do not benefit financially from the events we post. Listing is not an endorsement of the content, opinions, or products promoted by the event organizers we feature here.
Please verify all dates, times and other event details as these are subject to change and are beyond our control.
What qualifies an event as ‘lit’? Any event that we think would teach writers of fiction, memoir, and poetry useful skills, inspire them to produce great work, remind them of the power of this work we do and build stronger, mutually beneficial ties between writers and other creatives.
