DIGITAL: The Unknown Workshop with Eris Young

Drawing on literary traditions from the Uncanny to the Gothic, this workshop looks at the ways authors withhold information to create tension and unease, propelling readers through the story. Participants will look at the fears and appeals of the unknown in a range of genres and forms, and practice using these techniques.
