  • A Novel in Four Drafts
  • Every draft of a novel can be more than just another version of the manuscript. It can be an ongoing evolution that keeps improving with each stage until the work is finally the best version of itself. Writers in all stages of production will benefit from this detailed and engaging look at the writing and revision process. Participants in this course will learn what they should focus on for each draft, techniques for effective editing, and how to complete that book that never seems to be good enough.

  • Crafting a Complete Story
  • A complete story has it all. A strong hook in the beginning, ongoing conflicts and questions to keep the reader interested, and an ending that is both satisfying and leaves the reader wanting more. In this four-part workshop series, participants will learn skills like identifying essential establishing information, writing scenes that continually flow between conflict and resolution, and setting up potential sequels while still crafting endings that are emotionally satisfying.
