A 14-session course devoted to narrative craft

Through close reading and writing exercises, participants work on point of view, voice, narrative time, dialogue, scene and summary, pacing, setting, suspense, and narrative perspective.

Each session combines concise theoretical input with the close reading of literary examples, allowing participants to observe how specific techniques function within a text and to explore how their own material can be shaped and developed.

The Lab approaches narrative techniques not as fixed rules, but as tools for expanding expressive possibilities and strengthening the internal movement of a story.

Over time, participants become more aware of how narrative techniques function within a story and within their own writing.
