Getting Ready for the Full Novel
Workshop with Jennifer A. Nielsen
Available spots
Service Description
One of the biggest frustrations writers often face happens when they know the manuscript is good and that they’re ready to be published, and yet the rejections still come. It’s a constant nagging feeling, the sense of being so close, but not knowing exactly where the writing is falling short. That was exactly how Jennifer A. Nielsen felt shortly before publishing her first novel. She has since become a #1 New York Times bestselling author of 25 books. This workshop will help you dissect and then rebuild your novel to help it move forward in becoming its personal best. The 37,000 words of your manuscript should be complete before the class begins. Preparation for this workshop will require homework, writing, and rewriting. Please plan for this before registering.
