Class Length

Do you struggle with getting started? Are you a pantser who has always wanted to try plotting? Do you wish you could write faster?

In this class, USA Today Bestselling author Ivy Quinn will take you through the steps of creating a detailed thirty chapter or so outline for your novel so that you'll be able to open that file each day while you work and know exactly where you're going and help get your work done faster.
Syllabus
The course will be over four weeks and be broken down into two classes per week:
1) why outline and an introduction to outlining
2) how to do the pre-work to create convincing GMC
3) Digging deeper into character's psyches to help build plot
4) Starting from your elevator pitch
5) Expanding out with the Snowflake Method
6) Three Act Structure, Hero's Journey and Heroine's Journey
7) Adjusting for Pacing
8) Creating the bullet outline to accompany your master outline to help keep you focused
Class Format
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.

I wish I had known the class was based on emails and homework rather than webinars. I think that's why 80% of the participants who signed up, dropped out. If the instructor had mentioned this beforehand, I would have never paid my money. More information would be greatly appreciated.
