Skyler’s Writing Craft Workshop
Myth: This Will Fix Everything
An interactive workshop in the power of myth to instruct and inspire not only what we write, but how we write it. Presented at and well-received by local and regional RWA chapters; scheduled for presentation at national writer and sci-fi/fantasy/comic conventions throughout 2010.
Struggling to find a timeless high-concept pitch for your contemporary? Every successful heroine, no matter how modern, connects to some ancient archetype.
Looking for a reason to write rather than wash the dishes? Touching base with the myth of yourself can help get you going again. Or maybe you just need a plot? There are worse places to start than the stories that have lasted a few thousand years.
We are all storytellers. From the family histories we recite to explain ourselves to ourselves, to the dreams we write when we’re asleep, human beings are creatures of narrative; and writers – from Dante to Gaiman, Milton to Whedon – mythically so. This workshop will unpack myth’s power to instruct and inspire not only what we write, but how we write it.
