April 2011
Crime-writing workshop with JANE GOODALL.
What is the detective up to?
One of the fascinations of crime writing is that it puts the writer in the position of detective, as the person in quest of a solution to some sinister human mystery. The challenge is to map the stages of the quest.
This workshop takes the form of a mapping exercise, starting from a shared scenario from which each participant—in the role of investigator—will decide on a succession of moves to advance the plot.
DATE: Saturday 30 April, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
VENUE: NEWC
COST: $65 members / $70 non-members (Bookings essential)

Her novels The Walker, The Visitor and The Calling (all published by Hachette) have sold widely in Australia and have been translated into German, Russian and Spanish.
