In this workshop, the focus will be on revising the beginning of your novel. You will have an opportunity to ask questions or post excerpts for feedback. The key takeaways will be:

• Great first lines/first pages that pull in readers
• Choosing what information to include so that your reader understands the story, without bogging them down with too much exposition
• Identifying and fixing issues with story, character, and plot
• Making the first thirty pages an engaging read for potential editors/agents
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.
