You written a draft or won NaNoWrimo! Great! Now what? Taking your novel from 50,000 words to First Draft can be challenging. This class will give you tips and strategies to turn your manuscript into a working draft and beyond. Participants will learn how to shape-up their project, do a basic outline and match it to story beats, and make an action plan for the project. We'll hear from working editors and agents in interviews, and learn what piques their interest and we'll even have a go at the first page of your draft, workshopping together. At the end of the session, each writer will have an action plan to move forward with their work.
Jessica Raney is the author of ten books, including seven novels and three short story collections. She is both self-published and small-press published and she works across the fantasy and horror genres.
