As readers, we all love to get into a good book with great characters and an engrossing plot line. We also like to guess what’s going to happen. But what we love most of all are those moments when you’re bowled over by some totally unexpected that you didn’t see coming, yet when you read it, it makes complete sense.
In Wait, What?! Writing Killer Plot Twists, you’ll learn how to write plot twists that will blowyour readers’ minds and keep them turning the page.
Topics covered in this workshop include: What is a Plot Twist?, which defines the term, gives the rules for how a twist should be written, and why we should use them; how to approach a plot twist from the reader’s point of view; how to misdirect your reader with dead-ends, false hints, and red herrings; techniques to foreshadow your twist; how to write a twist using flashbacks; how to play upon your readers’ emotions; how to work backward to layer in hints and misdirection; and tips for writing the killer twist.
***Included in this workshop is Your Character Workbook, filled with resources, worksheets, and more!***
