WANT to write a steamy, sexy story but don’t know how to?
On Saturday, the Bocas Lit Fest will be hosting a creative workshop with focus on writing romance novels.
This particular creative workshop, titled Writing Romance, is being hosted by Antiguan author and lawyer Rilzy Adams.
To date, she has self-published 21 works including Go Deep, The Gift and Ate: An Erotic Novelette. She is currently in the process of working on another.
Bocas Lit Fest in a release on Thursday said, “The workshop promises to put the elements together to create romance fiction that grabs readers with a combination of surprise and satisfaction, as a seductive plot and compelling characters are essential to good romance fiction.
“Ms Adams is skilled in holding a reader’s attention and in this interactive workshop session, she will be sharing tips on crafting full-bodied characters and will also explain the stages of creating a narrative that will keep readers glued to the page. This workshop is intended to continue to encourage other Caribbean writers to explore the genre of writing romance fiction and to highlight genres that exist as subsets of what we know as “standard” – fiction, non-fiction and poetry.”
The workshop on Saturday, will be held via Zoom from 10 am to 11.30 am.
Registration cost is TT$300. Interested persons can register for the event via https://www.bocaslitfest.com/
