Description

“Writing with Fantasy” is a course of creative writing that aims, as goal, to introduce people to the fundamental bases to undertake a creative narrative path of any kind it could be, and then to use your own skills in the development of the story that you want to tell to your readers, trying to underline the most important and delicate steps that must be made to complete a project of this kind. There are many stages and there are many topics on which we shall focus, giving the opportunity to acquire the necessary concepts that will help each student of the course, to bloom the narrative art that is present in each one of us. In addition to the various main phases, we shall deepen also those small chiselling that are used to embellish and improve every kind of prose book, up to explain how to decide, which way of publishing, you think can be more suitable for your work. In the following pages, therefore, you will find my personal writing system that I decided to share with all of you, inspired by the classic foundations of the material that we shall handle together, to lead you through the labyrinth streets of your imagination and ensure that your ideas could find the exit to be described in the best way.
