MASTER CLASS - THE ART OF REVISION:
You’ve finished a draft! Now what? First, congratulate yourself because YOU FINISHED A DRAFT!!! Next comes revision: a process that can be challenging—it’s partly about challenging yourself—and also incredibly satisfying as you see your work go from a draft to a complete and polished piece you can share with agents, editors, friends, family, or all of the above.
You’ve probably heard “good writing is rewriting” but how exactly do you do it? That’s what we’ll explore on the first Sunday of July: Revision steps and strategies, how to set a schedule, and most of all, how to keep your courage up and remind yourself that you can, in fact, do this!
2-hour class: $30
