Together, we’ll learn the vocabulary and steps of writing mysteries.  We’ll develop a detective, create a setting, and choose between two options:  our own mysteries for the detective to solve or one mystery –such as a missing artifact or crime --where we can each pursue a separate clue. We’ll sprinkle in other essential choices, then we’ll set out on our individual writing journey. Either path, we’ll share our writing and review how the details of our own story reveal the critical parts of storytelling.  Through the process of giving and receiving feedback with panache, we’ll practice the best tools for revision.  Then we’ll polish our contribution and create a combined story that satisfies any mystery lover!
