Breakthrough Writing-Your First Novel

Students will learn how to start a novel (or if applicable, finish one), and to revise and self-edit with clarity and honesty. But, most importantly, students will learn to unfurl the story in their head and put it on paper in a cohesive way. Topics include developing plot, characters, conflict and pacing. Finer points such as naming your characters, will also be discussed. Feedback from the instructor and fellow students will be provided. Books used in this course: Crafting the Very Short Story?by Mark Mills and "Craft in the Real World" Rethinking Fiction Writing and Workshopping by Matthew Salesses
