Your Chemical Romance: Revision Workshop

  • Big Couch 1045 Desire Street New Orleans, LA, 70117 United States (map)

A Page to Stage Revision Workshop with Author Genevieve Rheams

Chemistry between characters and conflict are essential in every good story, but they make up the soul of romance. The reader has to want them to be together, but something, some situation, or some damning character flaw, keeps it from happening.

This revision workshop will help you find the areas in your story that need chemistry and conflict to make a believable romance that your readers cannot put down.

Genevieve will:

  • Share how she pushed through her own roadblocks while writing her novel, We Will Plant Birds of Paradise

  • Lead generative writing exercises that will unstuck your lovestruck characters.

This event is free. No RSVP necessary.
