Research. Some of us love it, some of us hate it, but we all have to do at least some research for our stories, whether it’s historical events, local hangouts, or wars.
In Digging Deep: Researching Your Novel, I’ll introduce you to various research methods, as well as different options for organizing your research. Topics covered will include using written sources, libraries and archives, and the media to help in your research.
Does your character have a job that you need to research? I’ll show you how to interview someone who does that particular job. And if you’re traveling for your research, I’ll tell you how to prepare yourself to find just the information you need. We’ll also look at Author’s Notes, as well as how to pull all your research together. Also included in the class is The Inverted Triangle, a Writing Right Academy exclusive that shows you how to narrow the focus of your research.
Included in the class is a workbook with resources, worksheets, checklists, and more.
