Have a story idea for a graphic novel or a prose story you want to turn into a graphic novel?
Join me for a two-hour online workshop where I take you step by step through the process of writing a graphic novel script.
Date: Tuesday, October 28, from 5-7 pm. The class will be live online via Zoom.
Pre-class homework: Ideally, you should have a scene in mind, either one you have already written in prose, or one you have outlined. The scene should involve some form of action (walking or eating is fine) and can incorporate narrative text and/or dialogue.
To register: Email alisa@alisakwitney.com with the subject line Graphic Novel Script Writing Workshop. An official link will be on my website shortly.
