Taming the Beast: How to Structure a Novel
Sunday, 9:00 - 10:00 AM
Alison Amend
This workshop will offer insight into how to structure that unruly beast: the novel. Examining different narrative frameworks, youll explore the relationships between theme, style and structure. Participants are encouraged to bring one-page synopses of their work, and will leave armed with a lion-tamers whip of strategies and pitfalls.
All workshops will be held in rooms D139 and D140 at the Oregon Convention Center.

For the sin of being a Christian personally opposed to abortion, Palin is being pilloried by the inside-the-Beltway Democrat feminist establishment. (Yes, she is anti-abortion. And yes, instead of buying organic New Zealand lamb at Whole Foods, she joins other Alaskans in hunting for food. That’s it. She is not a right-wing nut, and all the rest of the Internet drivel—the book banning at the Library, the rape kits decision—is nonsense. I digress.) -Elaine Lafferty
