Description
Plot structure and book pacing is critical to winning fans from among the millions of readers who were raised on a steady diet of TV and movies. Learn how to use spatial schematics, brainstorming, character sketches, relationship trees and traditional scene outlining to create the "architecture" for your book.
These tools will help you:
- Present your plot to readers at a pace they are accustomed to
- Develop lifelike characters that take up appropriate space in the story
- Build an outline that lets you dive in and start writing whenever you have even a little time free
Participants are encouraged to come with a book idea, a large pad of paper, plus several different colored pens to get the full benefit of the class.
