You’ve finished a first draft of your novel. It’s got a beginning, a middle and an end. But your first draft is only the first step on your road to publication. The difference between a good novel and a publishable one is a rigorous revision process. This workshop will give you the tools to revise your novel by analysing your prose at a macro and micro level AND help you position your pitch to catch the eye of editors and agents!
