Solidify your plotting and add emotional resonance with a strong character arc. Hands on and immediately actionable, this workshop comes with two simple lessons, three easy to use worksheets, and lots of feedback by a developmental editor who has worked on hundreds of stories. If your arc is broken, let’s fix it!

  • How to “see” and use the character arc for plotting and to add emotional resonance.
Worksheets:
  • Worksheet 1: Pinpoint and “see” the character arc in your story
  • Worksheet 2: Use your character’s arc to tighten, fix or solidify your plot.
  • Worksheet 3: Use your character’s arc for deeper emotional resonance

As always Jodi’s classes are worth so much more than the price. Her experience and suggestions were key in me completing my book.
excellent class I used the handouts for my current work in process and they gave me some strong insights into the growth of both characters before I started writing. well done. would recommend to anyone
Really enjoyed the class and all of the wonderful advice. Would recommend this class again!
