Some think that tropes are formulaic elements or cliches, but actually, tropes are the building blocks of a story, and a better knowledge of them can help you construct a more compelling story and market your book to the readers who most want to read it.

In this workshop, we will:
  • Define tropes.
  • Identify and discuss some common tropes.
  • Explore how to use tropes to build a story.
  • Use tropes to develop a marketing plan.
Class Format
Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.

The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter.

Please note that you do NOT need to be online at a specific time to access the lectures. This is NOT a live video based class.
