Welcome to the Story Craft Café Podcast. If you’re just joining us for the first time, we kicked off a challenge a couple of weeks ago to Write A Novel With Dabble In 60 Days. This challenge encompasses the yearly NaNoWriMo Challenge, while also adding a planning month to the mix. Five writers are going through the process of developing an idea, making a fully formed plot and plan, then executing the writing of a first draft in 60 days.

Last week we talked about characters. We know that characters drive your story through their own accomplishments and the way they do, or do not, handle plot devices you throw their way, but what about /where/ your story is set? Have you ever heard the term “place as character”? Well, in today’s show we talk about it.

Join us as we look at what makes a great setting and how you can use that setting to set your story apart from the rest.

Go to storycraft.cafe to join in the challenge. We’d love to have you!
