About the Event:
Imagine J.D. Salinger deciding Holden Caulfield shouldn’t tell his own story, but handing the job to an omniscient narrator? Choosing the right point of view can make or break your novel. Hear Chris Castellani, Daphne Kalotay, and Celeste Ng discuss how they chose (and rejected) points of view, until they hit upon the right one for their novels.
Want to get in on the action? Bring a page of your own fiction (maximum 250 words) that shows the same paragraph told from two different points of view. One lucky audience member will have their entry read aloud and discussed by the authors. The winner receives a free GrubStreet pint glass and a drink—as well as possible love, wealth, and fame.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Readings begin at 7 p.m. sharp! For info on future events follow Craft on Draft on Twitter or like us on Facebook.
