Syllabus
Part one of this groundbreaking editing workshop will help you understand four of the six cornerstones of a best-selling novel.
Have you completed a rough draft of your book but have no idea how to tackle your edits? Have your submission efforts netted a full request from an editor or agent only to end in rejection after they’ve reviewed your manuscript? Do you want to learn how to edit like a professional editor? Then you are a prime candidate for this Self-Editing Workshop by SavvyAuthor's founder and Entangled Publishing's Publisher Liz Pelletier.

FIRST PASS EDIT
Editing your book well can mean the difference between having a bestseller and having a midlist book that quietly disappears from the marketplace. If you want your manuscript to rise to the top, this class is for you.

Part one of this groundbreaking editing workshop will help you understand four of the six cornerstones of a best-selling novel. You will look at the roles of plot, characters, stakes, and structure in your manuscript. Without these essential elements, your book will fall flat.

You will dig deep and evaluate plot structure, character, motivation, pace, and setting through the eyes of an editor. You’ll also learn the process of the First Pass review, including the critical elements editors look for, determining your manuscript’s strengths and weaknesses, where restructuring is necessary, and the core ways to make your book stand out in a highly competitive publishing market.

Second Pass Edits

You’ve successfully looked at plot, characters, stakes, and structure during your first pass of edits. But are you done?

Not. Even. Close. Next up is a closer look at refining characters, fixing plot holes, upping the all important internal conflict, developing stronger end of scene hooks, and revealing voice.

Whoa! That’s a tall order. You’re right, it is.

There are three inconsistencies in motivation, plot, and structure that tend to prevent a reader from connecting with a story. In part two of this ground-breaking workshop, you’ll learn the critical elements of the Second Pass analysis, enabling you to see where your manuscript is strong and where you can smooth and refine your writing and structure to ensure your story is consistent and compelling

So much actionable advice. I took pages of notes, and I've been writing for years! I went in hoping for a gold nugget or two of information. Instead, I'm leaving with a handfuls. Very excited I took this class! Was a last minute decision, and one I don't regret.
After a few bugs, in the beginning, everything ran quite smoothly. Liz sure knows her stuff and I really appreciate the examples she gave as that is how I learn best. Thank you.
I found this webinar extremely helpful. Liz broke down the first pass edit very clearly and offered some amazing tips which I will be putting to practice in my editing process. I always feel a class or workshop is worth your time and money if you can come away with at least one new tip and I came away with several!
Liz gave great tips for spotting and fixing what's wrong with characters, pacing, and saleable appeal. So much valuable information shared in a simple-to-understand style. Thanks for this webinar.
Excellent class with a ton of highly informative and extremely important information. Absolute standout in terms of what to know as a writer, as an editor, and how to fix things when we spot them.
This is an incredibly valuable class of tips and tricks for self-editing any book, any genre. I love Liz's candor and humor, and the peeks she gives inside her personal work with authors & the books she loves.
This webinar was so much more than how to edit - it was how to build a best seller. Jam packed with actionable information. Thank you!
