In this workshop, Lorin Oberweger will present strategies to help keep promising early chapters from melting into a mushy middle. Bring your WIP and be prepared to explore methods for building your novel’s premise and other story elements to make certain you’re creating the foundation for a rich work, filled with escalating stakes and complications; developing fully formed characters whose backstories, desires, and motivations are powerful enough to support a compelling narrative; and more!

A recording will be sent out the next business day for those unable to attend live - or for those who want to watch again!

*Lorin will be doing a limited number of critiques in conjunction with this talk. To sign up for the lecture + critique, sign up for this event here: https://www.inkedvoices.com/group/pro_group/647/.
