Dead Awakenings

Being dead can be a great way to find yourself…

Struggling to pay her bills in New York, theater student Evaine Michaels sees an opportunity to make money by taking part in an unsanctioned clinical trial for a new drug. But things don’t go as planned. She wakes up in a derelict hospital, chained to a bed with no memory of who she is or how she got there.

Vigilante at Valentine: An Otherworlder Paranormal Mystery

Raine may be a magicless Fae - but that doesn't mean she's helpless.

Raine’s a Fae with no magic. Banished to live among “Mundanes” in the human world she works as a Private Investigator for Otherworlders. And she is having a very bad start to her New Year!

Red the Were Hunter

She’s the key to a prophecy that could heal the land. He’s the only one standing between her and those that want her dead. But fulfilling their destinies means turning their backs on everything they’ve been taught to believe.

Zelle and the Tower

She has the power to destroy the world, and only he has the power to keep her safe. Sweet and naïve Rapunzelle possesses a dangerous and powerful magick. Her entire life has been spent in a mage tower built by her father, to keep her safe. Or so she's been told.

Dracula's Bride

Mina wants to escape her sheltered life. Blue needs a fresh start. Together they might find the satisfaction they both crave.

Kissed by the Reaper

Some loves are worth battling both Heaven and Hell to keep.

Rose committed an unpardonable sin right before she died. As penance, she has been reaping souls for Lucifer for over forty years. On All Hallows Eve, while ushering souls back to Hell, she runs into the mysteriously handsome Elijah - An Angel masquerading as a Jumper.

(includes Whole Conference general admission to Fyrecon)
Class is limited to 24 students

Class Date
November 19, 2021, 4:00 PM to 7:50 PM Mountain Time
At Fyrecon 5

Have you ever watched a movie and rooted for the villain? Do you read books where you cringe and are yet delighted by the awfulness of the bad guy? Have you ever seen a villain transform before your eyes as you realize their motives are not that far gone from what you yourself believe? These are great villains! Contrary wise – Have you ever read a villain sitting in a oversized chair stroking his longhaired cat? Or giving a long winded explanation to the hero of what he is going to do next right before he attempts to kill said hero? Or how about a bad buy who strides down the street all in black his menacing look scaring everyone in sight? Big difference right?

Villains, bad guys and monsters can make or break your book. In this class you will learn exactly what you need to write a believable and memorable bad guy. You will learn how to make them tick, how to make them real and how to get your readers cringing and still wanting more. From motivations to backstory and minions to stereotypes you will leave the class with the tools necessary to create your own worst (or best) villain yet.
