REVISION SCENE BY SCENE ⭐ An author's best chance at publication lies in a powerful first impression which means showing the strongest draft possible to agents & editors. This workshop will take you through the steps of revising a novel scene by scene to strengthen the plot, characters, setting and themes, helping you make it the best expression of your voice and purpose. If you have a finished manuscript that needs a final polish or a book of the heart that hasn’t found traction when you’ve submitted it, this is the workshop for you. 📌 Participants will • learn what makes a bit of writing a scene • divide their WIP into scenes • learn to analyze a scene • make a scene card for their WIP or a favorite book • discuss different types of scenes • list the obstacles the main character of their WIP faces • analyze obstacles for maximum effectiveness • consider the order of scenes in your WIP • consider the balance of the entire manuscript and where the inciting incident, midpoint, and climax fall. ✨Please bring a favorite novel in a genre you write and a dozen or so pages of a manuscript that you have finished a full draft of. ⭐ Rosanne Parry grew up in Oregon loving its rainy days, wild places, and many libraries.
