Prep Your Novel Class

This class will put writers on the right path to starting a new novel.

By breaking down the major elements of writing a novel – characters, setting, research, plot, character development, outlines, and planning, this class aims to put writers on the path to success as they set out on beginning a new book. Attendees will undergo a large variety of exercises that will involve making lists, crafting scenes, creating outlines, and more. Each exercise is intended to help writers know everything they can about their book before they begin writing. By the end of the class, you’ll know your characters and the story line more intimately, as well as have the outlines, research, and information needed to sit down, write a novel, and finish it.

TAKE THIS CLASS IF: 

  • You’re ready to start a new novel or are in the process of writing one.

  • You need some help organizing your thoughts on your next big writing project.

  • You’re looking for motivation to start writing and/or complete your next book.

  • You prefer to make an actual plan and start writing, rather than listen to a long lecture.

  • You’re curious about pre-planning novel writing tools and want to learn what can help writers succeed.

The deadline to register for this class is Wednesday, November 1 at 5:00 PM CDT.
