The Step-by-Step Guide to Novel Writing
Have you always dreamed of writing a book? Is there an unfinished or unedited manuscript lying in a drawer—or has it been there for years?
In this 5-part course, we’ll help you create an attention-grabbing opening, prop up a saggy middle, and keep readers rapt with anticipation until “The End.”
At the Writing Lodge, we believe in writing theory. Everybody has a great idea, but those ideas will forever remain in the planning stages or in various incomplete drafts if not done correctly. Sure, there are plenty of “finished” books out there that likely paid no heed to theory, but this is your book; don’t you want to make it the best book it can be?
Session 1: Strong Beginnings – Hook your reader from page one.
Session 2: Plotting & Templates – Make your story readable and meaningful.
Session 3: Filling Out Saggy Middles – Sculpt your grand idea into the manuscript it’s destined to be.
Session 4: Creating a Story Bible – Add depth and detail that turns good stories into great stories.
Session 5: Endings & Editing – You’ve finished strong, now it’s time to make your story perfect.
This course is perfect for anybody ready to get into the serious nitty-gritty of novel writing.
Cost: $120.00 USD per person (five for the price of four). Each session is two hours.
