A creative writing workshop with Nikki Payne for DC Reads
For DC Reads, join the Library and the PEN/Faulkner Foundation for a very special creative writing workshop.
Ever wondered how to breathe new life into a classic tale? Join bestselling author of The Princess and the P.I., Nikki Payne for a masterclass in the art of the retelling! She'll pull back the curtain on how she transforms beloved stories into fresh, culturally rich narratives that honor the original while creating something entirely new. Through interactive exercises and real examples from her own work, you'll discover how to identify the heart of a story, find your unique angle, and weave in authentic cultural elements that make readers fall in love all over again. Come curious, leave inspired! and maybe with your next book idea scribbled in the margins!
A limited number of copies of the book will be available for giveaway courtesy of the DC Public Library Foundation. Learn more about all three DC Reads titles and events here.
