About this Event

So you finished your first draft? Congrats!!! What comes next in the process to move towards publishing?

Come join Summer Falkenrath for an in-depth workshop on how to write your second draft. Using a technique they have perfected through writing several of their books, Summer will walk everyone through the gritty process of assessing what can stay and what can go in your next draft and why. Summer is a self-published author with four published novels and one published short story. They've taught this workshop several times over the last decade and will be using this same method right along with the class for their own novel.

Please bring:

Your story: printed, digital, handwritten, doesn't matter. Whichever way works best for you.
A writing tool and a notebook: to actively work on your project together.

Everyone will receive:

a copy of Summer's zine How to Write a Second Draft

Specific and tailored mentorship to match your draft
