Stunning Sentences

A writespace special event video

October 2024

What can academic and professional writers learn from the stunning sentences of creative writers?

In October 2024, international writing expert Helen Sword was joined by Nina Schuyler, author of How to Write Stunning Sentences and the popular Substack newsletter Stunning Sentences, for this WriteSPACE Special Event. Nina is unrivalled at unravelling complex sentences to show us how they work — and how we can make our own stunning sentences work for us and our readers.

In the first hour, Helen and Nina discussed what makes for a stunning sentence and why it’s worth paying close attention to intricacies of syntax, structure, and style. In the second hour, they ran a hands-on sentencing workshop for paid subscribers to their respective newsletters, spending time, in Nina’s enticing description, “admiring, mooning over, loving, and learning to write stunning sentences.”

A video of the first hour is available to all registered participants; you can watch a recording of the full 2-hour session in the members-only WriteSPACE Library. Not yet a member?
