Event Concluded

Event Description

A workshop led by our Author in Residence Gina Blaxill. Participants will plot and create their own murder mysteries. We’ll talk about the key features of murder mysteries, including detectives, clues, weapons, motivation and red herrings, and brainstorm how we can use and subvert stereotypes to create suspicious characters. We’ll plot our stories in groups, and have a go at writing an attention-grabbing opening.

Please book a place either on this workshop or on one of the 10-minute one-to-one sessions afterwards: https://library-events.essex.gov.uk/search?l=134&q=one-to-one
