Sound of Story–Finding, Crafting and Playing with Voice with Jordan Rosenfeld

Ideal for any writer who wants to polish prose and write vibrant characters

CONFAB • Saturday, January 10, 2026 • 11am-12:15pm PST 

Your characters are sassy or stern, enthusiastic and effusive, and they’re waiting to leap off the page into readers’ minds. This confab unspools the essentials of voice, from character’s secrets and fears, their attitudes and personality, and teases apart the mysteries of syntax and sentence structure in ways that will not remind you of high school English class. You’ll come away from this confab with an overarching sense of what comprises voice and how to wield it more confidently in your own work.

The Sibyl Writing Craft courses are held via a private zoom link, allowing you to participate from anywhere.

  • You will receive your private Zoom link via email one week before the course.

  • A reminder email will be sent 24 hours prior to the course start time.

  • We will email any essential course materials, handouts, and recommended resources prior to the start of the course.



In this Confab, we will:

  • Demystify voice and tone, the essential heartbeat of strong storytelling.

  • Develop tools to shape authentic, compelling narrative voices.

  • Create writing that resonates with readers in fiction and nonfiction alike.

Transform your writing and bring your characters to life.

What is the difference between a Confab and a Lab?

Sibyl Writing Craft offers two distinct types of courses. Learn about each below to help choose which is right for you.

  • What is a Confab?

    A Confab is a focused 75-minute session led by one of our mentors. It’s an engaging, information-rich talk on a specific topic—like writing vivid characters, revising your manuscript, or understanding publishing. Confabs are designed to give you practical insights you can apply right away.

  • What is a Lab?

    A Lab is a longer, hands-on course lasting three or more hours. Labs may take place in a single immersive day or unfold across multiple weeks. They’re designed for deeper exploration, interactive practice, and direct feedback from your mentor.
