This class focuses specifically on the middle of your story, the bulk of the action that takes place after the set-up and builds up until you reach your “disembarking point” and the book’s ending.
Whatever your process—from highly detailed outlines to seat-of-your-pants writing, and everything in between—this class will help you build a framework for a successful, satisfying book. We will map out the high points (and low points) of the middle of your book. We will discuss how your “midpoint” is not exactly in the middle, nor does it indicate one moment in time. And we’ll help you decide precisely how to shake up the world you’ve created (so you can fix it in time for the end).
- How do you crank up conflict and emotion without writing yourself into a corner?
- How do you fulfill the promise of your beginning (and your blurb), to deliver the book you’ve promised readers?
- How do you keep readers emotionally engaged without having to use tricks and red herrings to make sure those pages keep turning?
