A plot, essentially, is what happens in a story. One event leads to another. But what makes a plot compelling? In this workshop, we will discuss the different types of classic plots: overcoming the monster, rags to riches, voyage and return, and rebirth. We will also discuss outlining, storyboarding, and “pantsers.” There will be a focus on character-driven plots, because, as writers and readers, we know we won’t arrive at the truth unless we see it through a character’s eyes.
