Join me for a new Masterclass: PLOTTING YOUR NOVEL (**Even if You Don’t Like to Plot!) with NY Times bestseller JONATHAN MABERRY
Saturday June 27, 10am - 1pm PST (1 - 4pm EST) via ZOOM
DESCRIPTION: The writing world is split between PLOTTERS (those who map out their novels) and PANTSERS/DISCOVERY WRITERS (those who make it up as they go). There is no wrong way to write your own book…however there are a lot of variations on how to develop your ideas into a compelling novel. This workshop is intended to clarify the many different methods of building your novel while reducing overall stress and avoiding time-devouring errors.
We’ll discuss:
• The Plot: What it is and Why it Works
• Discovery Writing: Exploring the Organic Process of Writing
• Hybrid Writing: Selecting the Elements of Each Style and Making them Your Own!
• The Rolling Outline
• Chapter Plotting
• Stream of Consciousness Story Development
• The Novel Synopsis
• Understanding What Your Novel is Really About
• Time Management Techniques
• Resources for Story Development
• And much more!!
