The Next Scene: Driving the Story Forward in Nonfiction [Christine Hemp]

Using established writers’ work, we will explore craft and structure, learning how one scene can build upon another. We’ll tackle elements that also appear in fiction: dialogue, precise description, and narrative arc. Each participant will leave with at least one new scene and a larger vision for his or her project. This class continues discussions begun in the earlier class “You’re Making a Scene,” but does not require it as a prerequisite.
