Welcome to the Mini-course on Mastering Time in Creative Writing.
In this course, we will explore various techniques and concepts related to manipulating time in storytelling, helping you to enhance your narrative skills and grow as a writer.
In narrative writing, time serves as a fundamental framework that shapes the progression of events and the development of characters. It is not merely a chronological sequence but a dynamic tool that can be manipulated to enhance the storytelling experience.
Understanding the role of time involves recognizing how pacing, flashbacks, and foreshadowing influence the reader's perception and emotional engagement.
By altering the flow of time—compressing years into a paragraph or stretching a moment across several pages—writers can control the narrative tension and reveal deeper layers of the plot and characters.
Mastering these techniques allows for a more nuanced storytelling approach, where the manipulation of time can reflect thematic elements, character psychology, and the complexity of human experience.
