About this listen

Welcome back to a new season of Lore & Love! In "The Artisan's Touch," we move from building our story to mastering the craft of prose. And what better place to start than the most important page of your novel: the very first one.

Join host Alexandria as she discusses how to craft an opening that makes an immediate promise to your reader—establishing tone, immersing them in your world through sensory detail, and introducing a compelling character before they even speak a word.

In a vulnerable and insightful new format, Alexandria puts her own work under the microscope, sharing an exclusive reading from the "author's cut" of her manuscript, STORM KIN, and breaking down exactly how the opening paragraph works to hook the reader. Learn the three essential questions you must ask of your own first page to ensure your story starts with a firm, intriguing handshake that your readers won't be able to resist.
