Whether you’re writing fiction, nonfiction, or memoir, the key to figuring out how to tell your story begins and ends with a concept. A concept isn’t about plot, characters, or dialogue. It’s the grand motif that ties everything in your story together—and helps you solve puzzles around timelines, arcs of change, and other thorny matters. This workshop teaches you what a book concept is and isn’t and how to write one and then use it. You’ll write multiple drafts of your concept, bringing you closer to nailing this essential grand plan for your book.

- Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.
The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter. You will also be given simple instructions on how to create a PDF of all your discussions along with our privacy and data retention policy.
