About This Training
When you write across two or more genres or age categories, how do you develop and maintain your voice as an author? How does the genre and age category of your work influence voice? What does it mean to create an author voice that is consistent across stories and audiences? In this workshop, authors will explore the elements of voice and engage in generative writing exercises focused on developing voice across genres.
