Whodunit? How to Write a Mystery

If you?ve always wanted to write a mystery novel but didn?t know where to start, this workshop is for you. We?ll discuss writing fundamentals as they apply to the mystery. We?ll examine characteristics of the many subgenres (thrillers, too!) and learn about mystery-specific conventions and pitfalls such as TSTL syndrome, macguffins, red herrings, killer twists, wacky sidekicks, and smooth clue-dropping, among others. Fun, educational, and? mysterious!
