Canadian Authors Association: Point of View - Who Tells the Story and Why Does It Matter? Workshop In-Person
Join author and editor, Ruth E. Walker, at the St. Catharines Public Library to explore Point of View (POV) in creative writing. You’ll learn about POV partners and how to use them, why backstory matters and when it doesn’t, and how POVshapes the narrative voice in all writing. In-class exercises will let you put into practice different ways to explore POV to add to your writer's toolkit of craft and technique.
