A new topic every month!

October Topic: Immersive POV Tips and Tricks for Writers

Our special Lit Fest topic will be “Immersive POV: Tips and Tricks for Writers.” What is Immersive POV? Why has it become so popular, and why do so many more bestselling authors consider it the be-all and end-all of modern writing? If more and more authors are using Immersive POV, are there any drawbacks to consider?

We'll discuss these questions and more at our monthly meeting of Writers & Scribblers.

We hope you can join us!

We meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 6:15 p.m. at the Durango Public Library.

AGE GROUP: | Adults |
