Writing Workshop - Creating Conflict with Stacey Wilk

ESL Room. Join us for a writing workshop with Stacey Wilk. Creating Conflict: All stories are conflict driven. ​Unless your characters are making choices under pressure, there is no conflict and without conflict, your reader will become bored and close your book. No one wants that. This workshop is designed to show you how to keep your readers turning pages and how to make your characters as uncomfortable as possible. From an early age, best-selling and award-winning author, Stacey Wilk, told tales as a way to escape. At six she wrote short stories in composition notebooks, at twelve she wrote a novel on a typewriter, in high school biology she wrote rock star romances in her binder instead of paying attention. But it wasn’t until many years later, inspired by her children and a looming birthday, that she finally took her story-telling seriously. And published her first novel in 2013. Since then, she’s gone on to publish thirty-four more so women everywhere can indulge in books with heroines just like them. Older. Wiser. Looking for love. She isn’t done telling stories. Not by a long shot. If you want to read her emotional and honest books about family, romance, and second chances.
