Seeing it Through: Finishing Your Novel [Megan Kruse]

This class will provide a push for the novel draft that’s been hovering on your desktop, waiting to be finished. On day one, we’ll examine techniques for writing strong endings and strengthening the overall manuscript. On day two, we’ll turn to writers like Jorge Luis Borges, Anne Lamott, and Stephen King for guidance; discuss strategies for persistence; and look at the nuts and bolts of moving from manuscript to publication. Come to class with an outline of your novel draft as it is; leave with a step-by-step plan to finish your book.
