|||||||||||
The Narrative Arc is the series of unfortunate events that form the beginning, middle, and end of any great story, fiction or non-fiction. Starting with an inciting incident (life was fine until...BAM—a complication), the narrative arc is usually told chronologically; however, past experiences (flashback/backstory) may affect, determine, or remain a deciding factor for actions, options, and consequences going forward. In this creative writing workshop, participants will learn what comprises a narrative arc, how to write a scene, hear examples of narrative in contemporary writing and how understanding the narrative arc can effectively strengthen creative writing Participants will also get feedback and learn what key points are missing from their own writing. Ms. Hicks is an award-winning author and independent publisher of Earthatone Books. She is also a New York Foundation for the Arts affiliated artist, and editor-in-chief at Harlem World Magazine.
