WHY NOVEL WRITER'S WORKSHOP?

Limited in size, this all day workshop focuses on YOUR novel. Before the workshop you will send in your cover letter, one page synopsis and first ten pages to be given back, critiqued and to familiarize all participants with each other's work.

How do we accomplish this?

• We explore your material for your one-sentence idea and theme.
• Ensure your story has a core conflict lock with protagonist and antagonist clearly defined
• Scrutinize the integrity of you plot.
• Examine your writing and voice.
• Make certain all three of these critical aspects-conflict, plot, voice-are aligned to maximize characters and storyline.

Regardless whether you've finished your novel, are just getting started, or haven't yet placed pen to page, my Writers' Workshop can make the most of your idea, talent, and time.

For this workshop you receive a copy of The Novel Writers Toolkit, a submission critique and a course outline.

Participant Testimonials

 "Thank YOU, Bob for making the trek out to our area to teach us more about our craft. I swear I learned more about writing this past weekend than I did my ENTIRE college career. Sad commentary, huh?"Jeri B.

 "Bob, Apart from hearing different pov's the greatest thing I took away was truth about my writing ability. You can fix anything but a blank page or blank mind. Writer's fear both. Hopefully someday we can stare at each other across signing booths and stare, gimlet eyed and wonder, "Did I meet with that author in a writer's camp?" I appreciate all the tips and the rips."Debbie G.
