Stop hurting your chances of publication.
Revision is a dirty word to some writers. But you needn’t fear the challenges of polishing a manuscript before submission for publication. This fast-paced, half-day class focuses on the ten most common mistakes and concerns, often overlooked by authors. Everything you do to your manuscript after the first draft is what makes the difference between a ho-hum story and a powerful tale that lingers in readers’ minds. Join us for a painless look at these ten major (but fixable) issues for fiction.
