Are you standing on the edge of a finished manuscript wondering what to do next? Many writers struggle with making the biggest leap forward possible in their next draft not because they can’t do it, but because they don’t know how to go about it. Developmental editor Dr Laurel Cohn demystifies structural editing, exploring what role it plays in manuscript development, how to go about it, and how to survive it. Breaking the process into stages, you will learn strategies and tools to apply to your own manuscript, with a focus on topics writers regularly struggle with. Note: to get the most out of these sessions, you will be encouraged to undertake ‘homework’ tasks provided.
Limited to a maximum of eight participants, this is an opportunity to delve deep into your work over four mornings of masterclass sessions, with time to write, edit, relax, play and meet other writers.
TARGET AUDIENCE: For writers of fiction and narrative non-fiction with a complete draft of their manuscript who are willing to explore the challenging inner terrain that underlies critical engagement with their own work.
