Mountain Words Literary Festival: “Research & The Novel” with S. Kirk Walsh

Thursday, May 26

10:30 am - 12 pm

As part of your festival pass, or $25 single entry

What is the creative interplay between research and writing a novel? Do you research before you write? Or can you write and research simultaneously? Whether you’re writing historical or contemporary fiction, often a significant amount of research can go into imagined characters and landscapes. How much do you need to know in order to set your characters into motion on the page? This workshop will answer these questions and offer strategies for fiction writers of different levels.
