Learn plotting secrets from “been there, done that” experts

Wish you could sit down with a published author (or group of authors) who know exactly how to plot out a successful novel?

That’s exactly what you get with Build Your Book: On Demand. Take a look at the line-up for this year.

From Spark to Story with Becca Day

Every novel begins with an idea, but how do you know if it’s strong enough? In this workshop, you’ll test your spark, expand it into a workable concept, and shape it into a compelling premise that can carry a full novel.

Every scene should move your story forward. Discover the key ingredients of a strong scene and learn how to stack them so your outline gathers pace and purpose from start to finish.

Writing from more than one perspective? Learn how to outline multiple points of view so each drives the story, fits seamlessly into the structure, and avoids confusion or clutter.
