Inject the Paranormal and Psychic into your Romance Novel

Have you ever wondered how to make your psychic characters more true to life? Or how to include paranormal events in your plot so that your readers feel the emotions associated with the event? Here’s your chance to pick the brain of a professional clairvoyant who has dealt with paranormal events her entire life. Melissa Alvarez will teach you how to make your character’s paranormal experiences and psychic abilities more believable. You’ll learn some of the common misperceptions regarding psychics and the paranormal, the difference between including real paranormal in your writing and “paranormal romances” and tools to aid you in tapping into your own psychic abilities. There will be time allotted at the end of the lecture for a question and answer session. If you have questions about psychic abilities or the paranormal but never knew who to ask, then this lecture is for you!
