Summary:
Many people have an idea for a novel simmering away inside them, but the prospect of creating a publishable novel can seem intimidating. Where to start? What to consider? How do you turn an idea into a plot? What to do when you run out of steam three chapters in? And when it's finished, what do you do? This workshop will outline some strategies and resources to make your novel the best it can be.
