Who Dun It? An Introduction to Mystery Writing w/ Patricia Marcantonio
- The Cabin 801 S Capitol Blvd Boise (map)
Be our witness…
Writing mysteries should be no mystery! In this three-hour, in person, practical how-do about mystery writing, you will learn how to plot a murder mystery, leave behind clues (but not too many), add a dash of red herrings, weave in subplots, create fascinating crime solvers and villains, and keep readers interested until the last page. You will also learn the value of outlines, research, and where to go for information about how crimes are committed and solved.
This workshop will take place in person at The Cabin. Proof of vaccination and masks will be required. To maintain social distancing, we will be limiting this workshop to 9 participants. You can read about our COVID-19 policies here.
Tuition: $50 or $45 for Cabin Members
Dates: Wednesday, October 27th from 6–9 PM
