This workshop is for those who either wish to or have started writing a novel. We will go over how to hook a reader with an opening, how to keep going through the murky middle, and ideas for sticking the ending. We will touch on the basics: character, plot, structure, and how to avoid common pitfalls. Come with your current or potential novel ideas so that you can complete a few writing exercises with your story in mind. Open to any genre!
