Afternoon LTUE Masterclass 2026

Learning The Super Secrets of Writing Through Guardians of the Galaxy

Location: Elm
Duration: 4 hours – 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm MST
In Person: $99.00

“Wulf Moon’s award-winning system on how to write stories does so with creativity, fun, and humor.”—Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author

Guardians of the Galaxy blew me away the first time I saw it, and I bet it did the same for you. Chris Pratt said he fashioned the role of Peter Quill/Star-Lord as a mixture of Han Solo and Marty McFly, and audiences fell in love with this humorous space opera take on a down-on-his-luck rogue.

The movie became a massive blockbuster, grossing $773.4 million worldwide and was the #1 top-grossing film at the North American box office in 2014. What made this zany space opera capture our hearts, launching another successful movie franchise for the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

It all boils down to the principles of great storytelling, giving the audience joyous entertainment while simultaneously plucking their heartstrings. Such success does not happen by chance. Success takes masterful skills and deep understanding of how to give your audience exactly what they crave, even if they’ve never seen or tasted anything like it before.

In this masterclass, we’ll be using the principles in my award-winning Super Secrets of Writing to analyze Guardians of the Galaxy to see what makes the movie both tick … and tickle. Whether you write short stories, screenplays, or novels, grasping what makes a great success work is the first step in duplicating that success in your own work.

Here’s a tasty sample of what you’ll learn in this fun interactive course:

1. How to play “Follow the Ball” and keep readers racing with excitement through your fast-paced plot. Punch it!
2. Methods used to create the Reader/Hero bond with each character (like Rocket) and how you can duplicate this sympathetic magnetism in your own unique characters.
3. Understanding the Noble Sacrifice and how to place it in your works to create emotional weight. Make audiences and readers talk about your tale for years to come!
4. Unveiling the Magic Sword in this movie—my top secret Super Secret—and how to deploy this secret weapon in your own stories to give your audiences a surprise ending that will make them stand up and cheer!

While you may not become a Star-Lord by the end of this masterclass, you will be light- years ahead toward becoming a Story-Lord. It’s true! Many of my workshop attendees become award-winning writers. Come join the fun as we deepen our knowledge of the Super Secrets used to create masterful stories through an analysis of this wildly entertaining movie.

**Bonus to those that watch the movie before attending, and to any participant that can recite the vast repertoire of Groot’s most famous lines!**

“I know Wulf Moon. I’ve seen his Wulf Pack writers take the stage at prestigious award events. I’ve heard them praise his Super Secrets as the secret to their success. Wulf Moon’s Super Secrets work!”—Dave Chesson, the Kindlepreneur
