On Thursday August 27th at 7 pm, mystery novelist Jeannette de Beauvoir is hosting a hilarious Improvisational Mystery Creation event via Zoom. Audience members will help supply the victim(s), the protagonist, the sidekick, the red herring, and the murderer… and will eventually put the entire story together!
Throughout the event, Jeannette uses these categories to weave in information about the genre and the craft: the difference between a cozy mystery and a procedural, the importance of sense of place, the formation of character, and the plot—which most certainly will include a twist.In less than 90 minutes you’ll have created a (semi)-coherent story to rival Agatha Christie—but having a lot more fun than Agatha ever did!
Jeannette de Beauvoir is a bestselling novelist whose characters uncover truths and occasional dark secrets via mystery, historical, and literary fiction. Her work has been translated into 12 languages and she has been a Booksense Book-of-the-Year finalist.
