TOMORROW AFTERNOON, GEOFF FULLER WILL PRESENT A LECTURE FOR THOSE WHO . . . “WANT TO WRITE THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE?”

AND THAT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING…

Almost everyone secretly wants to write the story of his or her life, and today we have a wide variety of publishing choices available to us. First, though, you need to determine what story you want to tell and who you are writing your story for. Learn the basics in this Saturday afternoon discussion.

Saturday, September 15, 2-4 p.m.

THEN . . . . . .


You Have a Novel in You!
8 Thursday Nights, 6:30-9:00
September 27-November 15

Hey, folks! The novel class is two weeks away now. It's time to give yourself (or your spouse!) the gifts of time and inspiration necessary to write that novel that's been nagging for years. This class went VERY well last spring, and even resulted in most participants saying they wanted to go on to advanced work in the novel. (Special announcement coming on that, available only to graduates of the Dr. Write Novel Class!)

GIVE AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT! I've been going over notes from the last class--fleshing out, tightening, improving--and this new incarnation of the class should be even better!

We'll cover all aspects of the novel: story, characters, beginnings, point of view, pacing, dialogue, motivation, and many more. Everyone should learn tons of useful stuff and have fun doing it. I'll be working on my own novel right along with you all.

(I hope everyone--including me--will have their novels well underway by the end of class.)

DETAILS:

(September 27) Talking about Story
(October 4) Building Your Novel with 360 Degree Character Development
(October 11) Jeopardy: In Media Res
(October 18) Psychology and Fortune, Floating and Grounded
(October 25) Depends on How You Look at It: Point of View
(November 1) All You Do Is Talk, Talk
(November 8) Setting as Element, Setting as Character
(November 15) The Working Writer

Again, that's eight Thurdays in a row, more than 20 hours of writing instruction, for only $225. Class size is capped: first come, first serve.
