For an additional fee, the Workshop Intensive provides a more concentrated workshop to strengthen and inspire your literary endeavors. Join us as traditionally published author & experienced book coach Sheila Athens shares the secrets she’s gained by providing developmental edits on dozens of manuscripts. During this course, novelists will learn how solidifying the bones of a story before you write will make your fiction stronger. We’ll discuss the point of your story, the protagonist’s goal, the lessons your protagonist needs to learn along the way and other essentials. These are the elements that make literary agents, acquiring editors and final readers latch onto a story & fall willingly under its spell. Seating is limited!
