Traci has no idea why she’s been asked to give the opening keynote at Storymakers Conference this year, but she’s going to do it anyway. Come join her as she knocks everyone’s shoes off (since her own will already be lost somewhere) with two classes on top of it, descriptions of which are below:

• MASTER CLASS - Intelligence Agencies: Getting It Right

  • Have you ever wanted to walk the halls of the CIA? Or needed to know which agency would be involved in a fictional scenario? Do you know the difference between an intelligence agent and an operational officer? This class will dive into the (unclassified) specifics of what really happens within the walls of the CIA as well as how the intelligence community works.

• From Spies to Hollywood Stars: How to Write Larger than Life Characters

  • We love to explore worlds beyond our own, from undercover agents to the rich and famous. This class will demonstrate how to create these larger than life characters while still keeping them grounded in a believable world.
