Make a Scene: Crafting a Powerful Story One Scene at a Time

Jordan E. Rosenfeld will

be the guest speaker at the next monthly meeting of the California Writers Club

Tri-Valley Branch on Saturday, June  15, 2013,


at the Four Points by Sheraton, 5115 Hopyard, Pleasanton.



Jordan E. Rosenfeld, author

of the popular writing guide Make a Scene and the debut

novel Forged in Grace, will teach you how to activate your

writing, creating the page-turning energy of blockbuster fiction by mastering

the essential building block: the scene. You’ll learn how to “demonstrate” not


“lecture,” crafting compelling, textured, memorable scenes. You’ll never write


the same way again.



Ms. Rosenfeld’s essays and

articles have appeared in such publications as AlterNet.org, Publisher’s Weekly, The San Francisco

Chronicle, The St. Petersburg Times, The Writer and Writer’s Digest magazine.

Her book commentaries have appeared on The

California Report, a news-magazine produced by NPR-affiliate KQED

radio. She lives in Northern California with her Batman-obsessed son and

Psychologist husband. Find out more at www.jordanrosenfeld.net.
