It's All Been Done Before: Writing Myths and Legends

📚 Overview

What makes the sun rise? Why are there four seasons in the year? What happens to us after we die? Since the beginning of time, people have been telling stories to explain the world around them — and these legends have provided centuries of incredible source material for writers to pull from.

If your interest lies in mythology, folklore, or fairy tales — or if you’re just looking for your next shot of inspiration — join us for this whimsical masterclass where you’ll learn how to adapt myths and legends to create something unique for today’s audience of readers.
