THE POWER OF SETTING:
HOW TO MAKE PLACE A CHARACTER IN YOUR STORIES

By thoughtfully selecting and crafting the environment of their characters, the astute author enhances plot momentum, deepens mood, and highlights theme, making the story more engaging and meaningful for readers. This skillful fusion of setting and story is a hallmark of compelling storytelling across all genres.


Expect to leave with a better understanding of the fun and function of place, location, time, and era.
