Of the three basic elements of a novel—plot, character, and setting—setting is often considered the least important aspect of storytelling—or, on the flip side, setting is elevated to the role of a character in its own right. The truth is plot, character, and setting are (or should be) inextricably intertwined. In “The Power of Setting,” Connie Berry will demonstrate how authors can use setting to immerse readers in the story, drive the plot, amplify character, plant clues and red herrings, create conflict and ramp up tension, reflect themes, reveal backstory, and foreshadow later events. She will also discuss five ways authors get setting wrong—and how to fix them. This is an OnDemand webinar.
