In this three-hour online class, students will explore a new model for drafting a book-length manuscript–one that’s focused on organic growth rather than rigid structure and possibility over perfection. Students will explore a three-fold process for writing that includes finding the heart of the story, fully entering the world of that story, and shaping the story with an eye toward the reader’s experience.
Along the way, the instructor will share some of the tips that have helped her get her first draft onto paper while offering up an array of options for writers who are having a hard time moving forward with their work. You’ll leave the class feeling newly inspired about your book project, with a solid plan in place for where you need to focus in drafting process.
