The Power of Touch: From Benevolent to Malevolent

It’s easy to write sentences about touch. It just takes a few more brain cells to amplify and make those lines carry incredible emotional power.

From caring to daring. From sweet to heat. From love to shove. From trying to lying. From willing to killing. From benevolence to malevolence.

In this 90-minute webinar, we’ll cover all that plus:

  1. How to use my four levels of amplification.
  2. How to go deep by sharing the impact on the POV character.
  3. How to use the twelve stages of intimacy.
  4. How to play up anti-touch and touchy-feely characters.
  5. How to assess touch indicators to determine if a character is lying.
  6. How to be unpredictable with touch.
  7. How to use touch to increase tension in your scenes.

Join me on Jan. 20th or 21st and make writing touch one of your strengths. I’ll show you how!

The Page-Turning Power of Cadence

Reading a book with flat-lined cadence is like watching a movie on mute.

Most writers know about the power of rhythm and cadence and beats. But most don’t use that power as often as they could.

A compelling cadence is more than varying sentence lengths. More than using ­­­­­stand alone words.

A compelling cadence carries power on the page. It propels readers through paragraphs and passages and pages.

We’ll cover:

  1. How Cadence Conquers Content
  2. How to Boost Cadence with Five Fabulous Rhetorical Devices
