Speaking in Voices

Hallie Ephron, Instructor

n this workshop, we'll discuss why so many thriller writers use multiple viewpoints to tell their stories, and how to meet challenge of making each point-of-view character's voice unique and compelling. Clue: It's about dialogue, internal dialogue, and telling gesture. Participants will analyze examples from authors who excel at creating multiple, strong point-of-view characters, and revise passages to create strong, distinctive character voices.
Hallie Ephron writes a monthly "On Crime" book review column for the Boston Globe and is the winner of the Ellen Nehr Award for reviewing. Her psychological suspense novel Baby, Baby will be published in 2008 by HarperCollins. She teaches writing at workshops across the country, and is the author of Writing and Selling Your Mystery Novel: How to Knock 'Em Dead With Style (Writers Digest Books), which was nominated for Edgar and Anthony awards. She is also the author of 1001 Books for Every Mood (Adams Media, April, 2008), and has co-authored five Dr. Peter Zak mysteries by G. H. Ephron from Minotaur.
