Why Lego? 

First, I have found that Lego is supposed to be an adjective or a mass noun. Technically, I’m supposed to say “Lego Bricks”. And it is evidently an American thing to pluralize it as "Legos". I’m going to apologize in advance to any Lego purists. I mean no offense, but I’m probably not going to be able to stop myself from saying Legos. 

When I was thinking about how I wanted to set this workshop up, Lego Bricks came to mind because you can build anything you want with them! You don’t have to be a "plotter” to build out a plot. 

When you are creating with Lego Bricks, you can follow a very specific instruction booklet  (for plotters) or you can stick them together until you see what you are going to make (pantser). 

This is not a story structure workshop, although I do have one of those! You can check it out here.

The purpose of this workshop is to test your idea. However many or few bricks of it you may have. 

For this workshop, our focus is: 

What do you know? 

What do you need to know? 

Every story starts with a spark. We’re just going to turn that spark into a fire.
