Your characters aren’t just passengers in your story. They’re the engine that makes everything happen. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to outline your novel around your protagonist’s goals, flaws, and conflicts so the plot unfolds naturally from their choices. We’ll also cover how to create antagonists and side characters who raise the stakes, deepen tension, and keep readers hooked. By the end, you’ll have character-driven story beats that give your outline unstoppable momentum.

In this funny old industry, we often talk about ‘comparative titles’. Where does your book sit in the market? Is it X meets Y? What will your readers also enjoy? We promised you help with this and here it is! Ella Berthoud is a bibliotherapist and one half of the brains behind the genius book, THE NOVEL CURE: An A to Z of literary remedies. Come armed with descriptions of your books and allow Ella to help prescribe your comparative titles.
