  • Learn pacing from me!

    Due to a cancellation by another instructor, I’m taking over to teach a class on pacing this Saturday at the Futurescapes 100 Page-Workshop.

    Finding the Pace That Serves Your Narrative will be happening on Saturday, September 26th from 4:00-5:30 PM ET. The class description:

    Pacing is the speed and rhythm of a story. In this class, author and editor Valerie Valdes will break down how pacing works at every level of a story, from big-picture structure to individual scenes and emotional beats. You’ll look at ways to vary tempo and intensity, while moving beyond rigid percentages and strict beats to focus on the natural cadence of a story. Whether you outline extensively or write more intuitively, this class will help you understand pacing as a flexible, powerful tool you can adapt to your own process.

    Treat yourself to a weekend of creative learning! Tell a friend! Hope to see you there.
