Do you have a novel or memoir in the works but don't know how to flesh it out? Perhaps you've run out of steam? If so, this workshop is for you.
In this small-group workshop, we will brainstorm plot arcs and subplot arcs for your work, and construct a frame on which to hang your story. We'll discover how to develop your characters through their actions, reactions, dialogue, and what other characters say about them. We'll ferret out what each author wants to say in his or her book and discuss how to weave in these themes.
Together we will get those manuscripts moving!
