The Friday 3-Hour Intensives are an optional add-on to the main Saturday conference for $80.
Intensive 1: It's All About the Food! How to Use Food to Drive Plot, Pacing, Character Development, and More with Elise McMullen-Ciotti, Senior Executive Editor, Lee & Low
Using food and drink in storytelling has no genre limitations and can be a powerful tool that instantly connects the reader to the story in a deep and universal way. In this intensive, writers will not only learn the how-tos of food writing as narrative support, they will also "cook" up their own scenes for workshopping during class.
Intensive 2: How To Fit into the Market with Emily Feinberg, Executive Editor, Roaring Brook Press
Discuss current market trends and how to follow the market to help find a place for your story.
