Writing about Shadow & Light

Shadowscape: How Darkness Plays with Light in Fiction and in Life

Join BWBH founder, Lara Wilson, live online through the podcast The 7am Novelist, in conversation with author and writing teacher, Michelle Hoover. Learn why investigating the shadow side allows us to deepen our experience of the light - in writing and in life! Yes, it’s early in the morning, but this is a good way to inspire new pages and engage with your story in a new way.

FREE and for ALL! Pajamas and bedhead welcome in the Zoom room.
