These genres have the most complicated plot twists in all writing, but with our Detective-Crime-Thriller Audio Class you’ll “complicate†with the best.
Are you most interested in truth? These story forms are about the unending search for truth, the struggle to claw through the facades, lies and misdirection that cheapen daily life. The truth may set you free. But these most honorable of all genres are a nightmare to structure.
The DETECTIVE—CRIME—THRILLER AUDIO CLASS shows you how to create the investigators, murderers and suspects, the intricacies of the crimes, the plot twists, the special story beats and the underlying themes of these popular forms. It also gives you detailed instruction on how to transcend these genres to write something truly special, like the classic hits L.A. Confidential, The Usual Suspects and Silence of the Lambs.
