January Winterfest: “The Craft of Writing” Round Robin Workshop
Are your characters flat and stale? Do they carry your story by being unique, or do they drag it down because they are stereotypes? Or are you unsure how to write effective dialogue that says what needs to be said, yet also gives the reader more information about your characters? Have you added enough tension and/or suspense to keep your readers turning the pages? Never fear, it’s Round Robin Workshop time.
Tri-Valley Writers members will lead four distinct topic presentations, which are designed to impart tips of the writing trade. Each attendee will receive a handout packet with valuable information to take home with them. Workshop topics include: “Crafting Well-rounded Characters” (B. Lynn Goodwin-Brown), “Writing Dialogue for Impact” (Bruce Overby), and “Creating Tension and Suspense to Keep Readers Reading” (Ann Parker).
While there is no fee for the meeting, we would like to know how many people to expect, so please register at: treasurer@trivalleywriters.org by Thursday, January 15, 2026.
