Infusing your story with tension doesn’t mean you need to resort to melodramatic tricks and clichés. In this class, award-winning author Alma Katsu will define what conflict is (and isn’t), as well as describe four different kinds of conflict and show how to layer them to create depth in your novel. This and other pre-conference master classes from James River Writers can be purchased a la carte, even if you aren't attending the JRW conference on October 7-8! Classes fill quickly, so don’t delay.
