Whether in the honeymoon period of the first one hundred pages or stuck in the middle, creating seven primary plot points that marry character development and page-turning action will help you reach the finish line! We'll engage in weekly writing exercises and discussions to develop scenes and workshop 10-15 pages of your book relating to a plot point. In this class, you'll build a roadmap for creating logical, organic transformations of your main characters. We'll also focus on building habits for a sustainable writing life.
