In this student directed class, we will cover all these elements, but in the order and at the pace determined by the participants. Where are you in your writing? Are you just starting out? Are you struggling with an incomplete story? Are you an experienced writer in need of motivation and fresh input from a supportive group? Do you need help with plot and outline? Does your dialogue sound unnatural? We will answer these questions with writing exercises and encouraging critiques. This class is for new or continuing students.

So you’ve finished writing your novel — what next? What do published novelists do between that raw first draft and the final manuscript to make their plots sizzle and their prose sing? The key lies in reworking your manuscript until your writing jumps off of the page. If you have completed the first draft of a novel, this workshop will help you develop skills to shape your plot for maximum dramatic impact and give life and texture to characters, dialogue, and setting. Note: There will be no class on Saturday, November 1st. Thank you for your understanding! San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
