The Language of Short Story Horror (And How to Apply it to Any Genre)
Description: Come discuss how careful and deliberate word choice can add friction and flavor to your written work. From building tension to subtly informing audience expectations, finding your story’s true voice will help you bring out tighter scenes, brighter colors, and more complex characters than ever before. This talk will frame its discussion around the horror genre and short stories, but the themes and ideas expressed will be useful to authors of any genre and length of fiction. Examples will be provided. Best suited for: Authors who seek to reach into the heart of their stories.
