Iran has presented a 14-point response to the U.S. proposal to end the war, according to Iranian state media.

If you’re writing a story, real or imagined, you’ll need both a “who” and a “where”: a character (or characters), and the place (or places) in which they exist. The problem is, it’s easy to focus on the “who” and neglect the “where”; to focus on character and minimize the environment. A house is a house, right? A tree is a tree. Nope. Not if you want to lift readers out of their own world and put them into one you create. This class series will help you do that by learning better ways to: Make settings come to life. Avoid dull, threadbare or cliché descriptions. Connect settings to scenes, and scenes to story. Unite characters with their world. (Who would Catherine Earnshaw be without the moors? Huckleberry Finn without the Mississippi River?) So, settle into your preferred chair in front of your favorite computer, and enter a fresh new world of writing.
