A lot of novelists struggle with the muddle in the middle. How do you stay on track and ensure it makes sense? How do you keep it fresh and engaging along the way? This class will explore why the middle is so challenging to write. Editor and writer Marion Lougheed will discuss common reasons why the middle falls apart, and provide strategies and techniques for sharpening and tightening up the bulk of your book.
This class takes place online using the Zoom Web Conferencing platform.
