Break Out of the (COVID) Box
We've all been trapped in lockdown with limited movement and the deadening effects of Ground Hog Day routine. As vaccinations happen and good weather is back, it’s time to break out of your reading and writing ruts with new inspiration and ideas from CCX2. This series is focused on the writing craft, the reading adventure, and how to expand your creative minds, loosen those writing muscles and discover new horizons.
Registration required for each individual session. Zoom details will be provided in the registration confirmations.
June 17: We Gotta Get Out Of This Place. How Changing Up Settings Can Free Your Imagination.
What we can learn from writing about places - or time periods - in which we don't live. It’s a big universe out there, and international crime writing has never been more rich and mind-bending. How learning about crime in Paris, or Stockholm, can inform your story set in, for example, a small New England town.
MC: Tom Straw; Moderator: Scott Adlerberg
Panelists: Cara Black, Timothy Hallinan, Johnny Temple
Registration required.
All registrants will receive the Zoom details in the registration confirmation.
