How To Plot Your Book With Ease

What’s the biggest mistake writers make? They don’t know how to merge the technical aspects of plot and cohesion with the emotional aspects of characters and desire. Without these things working together authors get rejected time and time again. The job of a writer is to entice, compel, and seduce readers; to tell a story while entertaining and evoking emotions so readers can feel beyond normal feelings. Emotion and scene are the secret weapons of plot and creating a truly compelling story. In this workshop, participants will be taken step by step from idea to emotion to story. Participants will have a clear understanding of how to move forward with their story after just 60 minutes of instruction. Examples from the participants will be workshopped.
