Deconstruct Your Favorite Books: Apply the Lessons to Your Own Work

This session shows how to deconstruct those books you wish you’d written. We’ll look at ways and means of assessing structure, plot, character transformation, setting, and other key variables, seeking out patterns you can apply to your own work. You’ll be able create stories that shine with originality using the tactics you’ve identified as relevant and meaningful in your genre. A three-point checklist helps you translate theory (your deconstruction) into practice (your original writing).
