You've got a great idea -- if only you could turn it into a GREAT story -- or even a great webcomic story. Come learn some of the tactics that published authors use to make storytelling much easier.
A showcase of new releases from FurPlanet Productions, including readings from Kevin Frane's much awaited novel "Summerhill" and the newest "Cupcake," Watts Martin's "Indigo Rain."
Join us for an interactive discussion on neopagan totemism, spirit animals, animal messengers, and whatever other topics we are guided to investigate. Be prepared to share your own personal rituals, experiences, and knowledge with the other attendees. This panel is for everyone, regardless of previous totemic beliefs or experiences. As a group we'll try to help guide those attendees who don't know what their totem animal is, but are trying to discover it.
Meet one of our charities, the Little Blue Society and learn about the work they do to resolve conflicts between humans and animals.
When you're reading a story, whether it's by a professional or an amateur author, how can you tell what makes it good? If you're interested in being a writer, you need to be an analytical reader. Let our panelists help ruin your ability to just read for enjoyment! (Just kidding. Mostly.)
There's not only an art to writing a constructive critique of a story, there's an art to receiving one. Join us as we talk about what makes good (and bad) critiques, and explore one of the most valuable things an aspiring -- or even established -- author can have: a good writing group.
What makes stories memorable? Memorable characters! Come explore how we develop characters from the "suppose there's a fox who..." conceptual stage to being compelling heroes, villains and romantic interests.
