Creating Awesome Adventure Stories and Narratives

What do the Star Girl, Zac Power Test Drive and Boy vs Beast books all have in common? They’re great adventure stories. This session looks at how a story is constructed and written, including character development, plotline planning, incident building, great beginnings and even greater endings.

Through role-play and other activities students will experience how to craft a good narrative and have the opportunity to conceptualise their own heroes, friends, villains and storylines.

Topics:

• The key elements of writing adventure stories
• Creating memorable and believable characters
• Writing from the heart
• Sound narrative structure
• Writing skills
• Can also include elements of non-fiction writing if required
