Building a World: The Genre Fiction Workshop
Working on a sci-fi novel? Fantasy? Horror? Want to be sure you're on the right track? On October 25, Litmore will host Building a World: The Genre Fiction Workshop, open to up to six Baltimore-area writers working in the diverse world of speculative fiction. Led by developmental fiction editor and literary horror/dystopian novelist Harrison Demchick (The Listeners), Building a World is an opportunity to sit down with fellow authors to analyze, critique, and improve those crucial first 10,000 words of your novel-in-progress. If you're serious about making sure that the early chapters of your novel engage your readers--if you want your characters clear, your story engaging, and your world compelling and tangible--then this is the workshop for you.
Harrison Demchick came up in the world of small press publishing, working along the way on more than two dozen published novels and memoirs, several of which have been optioned for film. An expert in manuscripts as diverse as young adult, science-fiction, fantasy, mystery, literary fiction, women's fiction, memoir, and everything in-between, Harrison is known for quite possibly the most detailed and informative editorial letters in the industryif not the entire universe. Harrison is also an award-winning, twice-optioned screenwriter, and the author of literary horror novel The Listeners (Bancroft Press, 2012). He's currently accepting new clients in fiction and memoir at Ambitious Enterprises (http://ambitiousenterprises.com).
Located at in the former St. John's Rectory behind St. John's Church, LitMore is dedicated to energizing and sustaining the area's literary community. For more information, visit http://litmore.org.
