The unique description of setting and history is often how readers distinguish a good story from an extraordinary one. Whether you’re working on a piece of historical fiction or something set in contemporary times, this class will help guide you in creating a strong sense of place and history in your work-in-progress. You’ll learn the value of developing the primary factors - sensory detail, vivid imagery, personification, and use of language - to give your project the standout appeal that pulls an audience in and never lets them go, long after they’ve read the last page.
