The best stories capture our emotions and make us feel so deeply, it seems like magic.
The good news is, it’s not magic.
Want to make your readers feel? There’s a simple three-step process to do just that. And in this, I’m sharing that process with you.
You’ll learn:
- Why explosive action is NOT enough to make your readers feel
- How to figure out what emotion you want to create for your readers
- How to make your readers care about something as large as a life-altering leap or as small as a broken pencil
- And more!
Want to make your readers laugh? Cry? Swoon? Shake with fear? The whole range of human emotion is at your fingertips. Find out how to create any emotion you like in the episode.
