About this event

Event Type: Panel

Event Code: REH/SAT-5

Venue: Rennie Hall, Emily Carr University

Cost: Free or PWYC (recommended: $12.50)

Five celebrated novelists and short story writers discuss how to channel fear in fiction, sharing their secrets to transforming a protagonist’s rock-bottom moments into compelling stories. By employing inventive and sensitive worldbuilding techniques, Mallory Tater, Zalika Reid-Benta, Rebecca Fisseha, and Rhea Tregebov explore how to make sense of the human condition through the written word and reveal how to take control of any given narrative. Moderated by Doretta Lau.

SCENT AT GROWING ROOM: Growing Room asks that all artists and attendees refrain from wearing scented products at all of our events such as perfumes, colognes, and body sprays. We do not enforce this policy, nor do our venues have permanent scent-free policies in place. Of note, both Emily Carr University and The Beaumont Studios house artist working spaces which may contain scents.

ASL-ENG Interpretation Available by Request Before February 15, 2020. Please contact Meagan Joy Black at festival@roommagazine.com.
