Jami Nakamura Lin will discuss comparing “rhetorical time” to “story time” in prose, the different levels of speed and how they function, how time in written narrative differs from time as we see it unfold through movies, tv, etc, how speed relates to the speculative, and how writers can use and twist time to a piece's advantage.
