POINT OF VIEW:\u00a0THE KEY TO YOUR STORY<\/B><\/SPAN><\/P> How many of us have drafted stories that seem deadlocked, not quite right? \u00a0The characters, setting, events of the plot are all there \u2013 but something seems stuck. \u00a0What often releases our stories\u2019 potential is a shift in point of view \u2013 a subtle shift from a more distant to a more intimate voice, or from a more immediate to a more reminiscent point of narration, or a change of person from \u201cI\u201d to \u201cyou,\u201d or even a change to another narrator altogether. \u00a0In this intensive workshop, we will study\u00a0different uses of point of view in work by masters of the story form, such as Alice Munro, John Cheever, James Joyce, Adam Johnson, and Julie Orringer, and write exercises based on these examples, to expand the possibilities of our own stories.<\/SPAN><\/P>
