This workshop will serve as an overview of the novel-writing process from 30,000 feet that demystifies and deconstructs how it’s done — from the mere germ of an idea all the way through the creative process, with an eye on getting a finished book into the hands of potential fans. We’ll discuss how to tap into your life experiences to transform them into a book-length project, populated with interesting characters, a twisty-turny plot, snappy dialogue, and an interesting setting. We’ll also touch on strategies for finding an agent, marketing the finished product, and facing your writing and marketing fears. There will also be a writing exercise.
