Moving Through Fictional Time with Richie Wills
Ever wondered how time bends and twists within the pages of your favorite stories?
In real life, time passes at a constant rate, but in fiction, it’s a different story. Your novel may span months or even years, yet be consumed in a matter of hours! From big jumps in time to smaller transitions between days or moments within a day, we’ll explore it all.
Whether you’re writing a short story or an epic novel series, time is a crucial element that shapes your narrative. In this interactive session, we’ll dive into practical exercises and discussions to master the art of crafting smooth transitions that keep your readers hooked.
